Sunglasses For Sport sponsor Marco Nannini Ocean Racing

24 Aug 2011

Sunglasses For Sport is sponsoring Marco Nannini Ocean Racing headed up by top sailing duo Marco Nannini and Paul Peggs. Marco, Paul and the rest of the crew are competing in the Global Ocean Race which will start on September 25th 2011 from Palma, Mallorca.

Marco and Paul are a proven team with a real chance to take a podium position in the GOR 2011/2012. Last year they led the Shetland Round Britain and Ireland race for 3 out of the 5 legs and were 2nd overall at the finish.

Their determination to do well in the GOR is clear in the dedication to preparing for every aspect of the race with months and months of planning. Although Marco and Paul’s entry in the Global Ocean Race has presented many organisational and logistical challenges so far, they have been lucky enough to benefit from contributions in kind in terms of equipment, ropes, clothing and a generous supply of sunglasses from Sunglasses for Sport. For more information about the race visit:  http://marconannini.com
