*STOP PRESS: When MTI Life Jackets learned that Marco is an experienced race-sailor, they upgraded his prize and are sending Marco the Vibe pullover performance vest to match Marco's style of sailing. Thanks MTI Life Jackets for your excellent support for sailing and for Summer Sailstice!
Marco Vailetti from Fremont, CA has won an Mti Journey Life Jacket and is looking forward to wearing it when he races on Pyramid Lake, NV at the end of August.
"I am pleasantly surprised that I won such a wonderful, extremely useful item as a PFD. Always wear one when sailing, it saves lives during unexpected circumstances."
Marco celebrated this year's Summer Sailstice aboard his Nacra Inter 20, named 'Banana Hammock', in the Commodore's Open Regatta at Huntington Lake. Clearly a sailor who enjoys speed, Marco took second place in the Open Multihull Class and shared the honor with his crew, son Alexander.
"We take things seriously."
