Alessandro Di Benedetto Sailing Around the World Non-Stop on a 21 Foot Boat?

Les Sables d’Olonne, France – Those of us who are old enough might call back the day Sir Robin Knox Johnston became the first person to circumnavigate the globe singlehanded, without aid and with no stopovers.

Well, we must admit that there could be some truth in that.
