Act 8 Rio winner and 2012 Extreme Sailing Series Champion
The most closely contested finish ever in the six-year history of the Extreme Sailing Series, today saw The Wave, Muscat clinch the final Act victory in Rio de Janeiro by the smallest of margins – just 0.2 points ahead of the French Groupe Edmond de Rothschild, and with it overall victory in the 2012 Extreme Sailing Series.
