The Mini 650 and Ambrose Beccaria are a love that is hard to separate. He had defended them in the verbal “dispute” against Vittorio Malingri, and now he is ready to get back on board even if he will do so in a very special Mini. The Milanese skipper, winner of the last Mini Transat as dominator and reigning TAG Heuer Sailor of the Year, will race in the new French season on the Pogo Foiler. An opportunity offered by a fellow French sailor, Tanguy Bouroullec, who will give Bogi the boat to manage, as he tells in his facebook post.
“This fall I will participate in the French Mini championship races at the helm of the legendary POGO FOILER. Thanks to Tanguy Bouroullec – Skipper who, being unable to participate, thought of me to fill in. I am HAPPY, first of all because it was not a foregone conclusion to be able to sail this year, but most of all because this mini steering wheel is a super boat and I have a lot to learn! In short, a CRAZY FUCK. We have already done some training with Tanguy and … it’s really promising this thing! Let me just tell you that we exceeded 20 knots of speed. Stay tuned because I will tell you more soon.“.
Good luck in this new adventure.
