Rudy Project and Andrea Pendibene challenge the Atlantic

Andrea Pendibene, the Italian yachtsman taking part in the Transat 6.5, set off yesterday on the spectacular transatlantic solo race onboard a 6.5-meter Mini.

4,200 miles from France to Salvador de Bahia in Brazil with only one stop at Madeira. About 30 days of sailing during which Pendibene can count on his faithful travel companion, Guardyan by Rudy Project, the technical sunglasses created to guarantee maximum protection and comfort even for the most intense sporting activities.

During this fascinating solo race with no assistance and without any communication with dry land, the talented Italian yachtsman will wear technically perfect and extraordinarily versatile sunglasses that feature a special, removable Grilamid TR55LX shield interface that is strong but light, padded and ventilated, perfect even in the most extreme weather conditions, and 100% reliable also for the most treacherous sports trials.
