A Dutch quartet won the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge, arriving on the shores of Antigua and Barbuda on Jan. 16 in style, waving red flares as the gathered crowd cheered loudly.
The 3,000 mile journey takes the teams from San Sebastian in the Canary Islands, all the way west to Nelson’s Dockyard in Antigua and Barbuda.
The Dutch Atlantic Four Team crew consisted of 34-year old Bart Adema, 51 year old Erik Koning, 58 year old Marcel Ates, 33 year old David de Brujin.
