The seven islands of the man-fish, by swimming in Gorgona Giannutri
will be up one after the other islands of the Tuscan Archipelago swimming stroke after stroke, but may not be able to reach the shores of some islands because "the Park did not give him permission."
's going to make an outstanding enterprise, unique in Italy, but most of the south-west wind and currents, jellyfish and sharks shark fears bureaucracy. Yes, because the man-fish, which from September 1 to 7 days'll have one after the other islands of the Tuscan swimming stroke after stroke, relates to risk not being able to reach the shores of Pianosa, Giannutri, Gorgona and Montecristo because "Park did not give him permission." So while grinding a mile after the other into the sea while climbing or mountain biking to wind, Alessandro Bossini, triathlete of great depth and exploration of our seas, hoping not to find some hard-working official who sends it back as he was take the earth to the end of one of its terrible stages.
Islands off limits then?
"Yes, the risk of having to stop to not enter the area at the park because it could disturb wildlife. Yet that's just me swimming and a canoe with me. And I wonder, what good is a park where people can go there even if they do not pollute? Mah .. "
How did the idea of \u200b\u200bthe tour of the islands of swimming?
"It's not something that came suddenly. I have already made several routes between one island and another, and so I suggest putting all together to do business that no one has yet done. One who lives on an island in the sea as a border then ... And I like the idea of \u200b\u200bpromoting our marine environment, why not I really understand why the Park face problems. "
How will the big swim?
'departure from the dawn of September 1 Giannutri to Lily for the first stage. I figured you could swim at a speed of four kilometers per hour but will vary depending on the conditions meteomar and fatigue that will grow step by step. Then it remains for these longer, Montecristo, Giglio of 55 km. From overtake Pianosa Montecristo, Elba and Capraia and finally get to the stage with another Gorgon 6 to 45 kilometers. "
Tiredness aside, what are the biggest problems in these two hundred miles?
"Do not I never stopped training in the months since last October and I have strengthened the hand into the sea. I'm not a swimmer and I like to alternate agonist bike and run water. The problems in seven days of open sea will be impossible not to encounter bad weather. Surely a storm and rough seas but I will go the same. Now everything is organized and too many people are engaged in this enterprise. "
Jellyfish and the fish are scary?
"For fish there is no problem, if anything, the jellyfish are worried. In the past crossing of Monte Cristo were so dense they do not pass and even though I had the suit and mask the spores so irritated me that every little throat I had to stop to drink fresh water. This time
We designed a network that will be towed from the boat before me and that should catch the majority of these coelenterates making me swim in water that is almost clear. "
Back to bureaucratic problems.
"Yeah, the bad is that this does not depend on my will or my ability to exercise. The park has not given me the support and I wonder what damage I can do. Fear the crabs? They told me I could go on condition that did not enter in zones A and you were asleep in the boat. After 18 hours of swimming maybe I'll sleep on a rock? "I said ..."
How will you follow the right direction?
"I will use a GPS to not drift, or else risk lose the route. "
Evan lone wolf?
"No, indeed, all those who may want to follow me in a canoe or swim in the features they prefer. A hundred yards or the entire journey. Many friends of the Lily, for example, will accompany me in the last meters, and the same will happen the next day with the departure from Campese. Then go on alone. "
