Photo Pedro Nunes
Marcio was out enjoying 30 foot surf with tow partner Lucas Chumo when he fell on a wave, suffered a long hold down and surfaced unconscious around 4.16.
Rescuers did their best to revive him but to no avail.
“The rescuers found that the victim was in cardio-respiratory arrest (the sudden loss of breathing, heart function, and therefore consciousness.) and immediately starting resuscitation manoeuvres on the sand. After several...Last edited by Photoboy; 01-06-2023, 12:35 PM. -

Haynes and some of the same crew lost the race win last year after being penalised for an infraction of the rules, but accepted second place gracef... -

Today’s Stage 1 was unlike any other that we have ever seen. Out of the gates it was on brand, weather-driven and rowdy, then quickly went vanilla sideways.
We’ll explain.
To be clear, the 5am start didn’t disappoint. A full moon sunrise greeted the hundred-plus, bleary-eyed racers who exited the marina to navigate a starting sequence unlike any other. True to the instructions from the skippers’ meeting the day before, the start...-
