LA GOMERA, Islas Canarias, December 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

- Se consiguen más de 1,4 millones de libras para la caridad

- Ha comenzado la carrera de remos más dura del mundo

Hoy, equipos procedentes de todo el mundo han comenzado la carrera de remos más dura del mundo - Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge. La carrera comienza en San Sebastián de la Gomera, en las Islas Canarias, España, y los equipos seguirán la 'Ruta de Colón' con dirección hacia la mitad del Atlántico hacia Port St Charles en Barbados. Se enfrentarán a condiciones muy complicadas y se espera que tengan que remar unas 3.000 millas. Como media, las tripulaciones tardarán al menos 50 días en completar el reto, remando en Navidad y Año Nuevo. Está previsto que lleguen al Caribe de mediados de enero en adelante, aunque no todos los equipos conseguirán el éxito al finalizar la travesía.

http://www.prnewswire.co.uk/newsindex.shtml?/cgi/news/release?id=341952

Participarán 17 embarcaciones, con equipos procedentes de todo el mundo. Hay dos remadores en solitario, y 15 equipos con tripulaciones de dos, cuatro o seis personas. Durmiendo en diminutos camarotes y remando dos horas sí y dos horas no, fueron despedidos por familiares y amigos en una emotiva ceremonia de despedida.

Row2Recovery es un equipo formado por seis ex-hombres de servicios, cuatro de ellos con graves heridas de Guerra, incluyendo a Neil Heritage, un doble amputado. El objetivo es el de conseguir un millón de libras para 'Help the Heroes'. -http://www.row2recovery.com

RowforFreedom es la primera tripulación completamente femenina en cruzar el Atlántico, y pretende romper el récord del mundo de remo trasatlántico más rápido jamás conseguido por mujeres. Consiguen el dinero para ECPAT UK y la Campaña A21, organizaciones caritativas que tienen como objetivo terminar con el tráfico de seres humanos. http://www.rowforfreedom.com

Tiger Team es un equipo de un matrimonio de hombre y mujer que consigue dinero para la St Mungo's y la Huntingdon's Disease Association: "Como remadores incurables, hemos llevado a cabo nuestra apuesta por visitar lugares interesantes y remar hacia ellos, y el océano es el próximo paso definitivo. Así que esto es menos una carrera y más un safari por el océano".

Atlantic Dash, con Jamie Windsor y John Haskell, dos bomberos de Gales, están consiguiendo dinero para la Fire Fighters Charity en una embarcación temática como un camión de bomberos. http:// http://www.atlanticdash.co.uk 

Soneravnorge, un dúo noruego formado por Emil Eide Eriksen y Trond Bratland Erichsen, están consiguiendo dinero para la organización nacional de las enfermedades de corazón y pulmón, Landsforeningen for Hjerte-og Lungesyke. http://www.sonneravnorge.no

Team Amigo es una pareja canadiense. Ole Elmer tiene 63 años, y es su segunda vez de remada por el Atlántico con el Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge. Este año remará junto a su hijo Michael. http://www.atlanticcampaigns.com

Andrew Brown es un remador en solitario que está consiguiendo dinero para Help a London Child: "He navegado a través del Atlántico anteriormente, y el Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge es la oportunidad perfecta para retarme a mi mismo aún más lejos". http://www.andrew.rowtheatlantic.com/

Notas para los redactores

El Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge

La primera Atlantic Rowing Race se celebró en 1997, y después cada dos años desde 2001. Atrajo una enorme publicidad en 2005 cuando Ben Fogle y James Cracknell compitieron de forma famosa e hicieron del remo oceánico uno de los retos atléticos más duros del mundo.

Talisker

Talisker, en su vieja expresión de 10 años de amplia distribución, es una compañía de Single Malt Scotch Whisky con un formidable aroma a pétalos y sal de mar, dulzura ahumada con sabor de malta y un acabado cálido con un toque grande de pimienta. Se trata del único whisky de malta realizado en la emocionante Isle of Skye, donde la destilería lleva tiempo fabricando este whisky de malta único revolucionario desde 1830.
