In the course of the report, it became clear that due to the epidemiological situation, there was absolutely no need to change the usual protocol. “There are six of us on the boat, plus two people in the motorcycle, we can work together according to the regulations, there’s no problem with that. There are far fewer people in the port than usual, but it could also be due to bad weather. The only difference is that the port crew wears a mask and that we have to put it on if we go to the public, but that’s all, it doesn’t interfere with the preparation. ” The 13-time blue ribbon winner told the reporter.
