Shorthanded Sailing in Sweden 2010

Pia L´Obry is the only, so far, swedish participant in the mini transat competititon. She sailed the race in 2003 in the proto class, SWE 316. She ended up as 11th out of 32 which was a huge success due to that she only had sailed minis during the preparation year, 2002 and the actual racing year. For me she is still a main inspiration to do shorthanded/solo racing.
