The yacht has become our second home

We are racing arguably the most high tech yachts on the planet today. We are being paid to push this awesome machine to its limits and beyond. We are here to discover new boundaries as a team and within ourselves. This yacht has become our second home and I feel proud to be a part of such a project.
