And again will the pioneers of the Rib Rally take the steering and throttle in their own hands during the Rib Rally. With a strong history of participations in the Raid Turquoise, the Red Sea Rib Rally and being the founders of the OffShore Rib Rally 785, they will hopefully set the example for the rest of the participants. Altough luck does not seem to be on their side within the last two years of the Caribbean, a 4th and 3rd place overall, they are still in the winning mood and for sure completely focussing in going for gold in this year European Tour and World Final! | Name: | Gert Jan van der Valk | Being one of the most experienced Rib Rallyers in the field, Gert-Jan knows how to steer the boat with his eyes closed!
