I would like to welcome Mauro on board of Atlantis. He is from the beautiful city of São Paulo and will sail all the way from Aratu to Trinidad with me. I am happy to have a Brazilian on board....it will also help in case we need assistance along the Brazilian coastline. My Portuguese is rather limited to order beer and say hello.

He is a keen sailor who wants to have as much experience as possible before starting his own circumnavigation.

I wish him all the best, and I am convinced we will make an excellent team to bring Atlantis safe to her next destination.
