Tim Szabo, owner and skipper of the Saga 43 'Kiship' was interviewed for the July issue of 'Spinsheet' magazine, the local sailing rag on the Chesapeake Bay (which, coincidentally, featured a cover photo taken by World Cruising Club USA event staff Mia Karlsson of her Swedish friend Johanna, sailing on the Alberg 35 Entropic on a hot summer day in Annapolis).
Kinship is a veteran of many World Cruising Club rallies, and is indeed registered for this year's ARC Caribbean 1500. Tim and the boat have sailed thousands of miles, including an Atlantic Circuit with ARC Europe and ARC last year. Click to read the full interview. Kinship Spinsheet July 2013.pdf
Thus far twenty yachts are registered for the 2013 edition of the ARC Caribbean 1500, which will see the pre-departure program in Portsmouth, VA for the first time. The group consists of old and new faces alike, including Kinship and rally veterans Sherry and Dennis on Trillium, who are headed round the world with World ARC next January.
The Rally News section of the ARC Caribbean 1500 will be updated semi-regularly leading up to the event, so check back often! Also be sure to 'like' us on Facebook (
