Fiestas navideñas, comidas familiares y siestas en el sofá. Los navegantes de la Barcelona World Race también son humanos y disfrutan de estos placeres, antes de zarpar el próximo miércoles, 31 de diciembre, para dar la vuelta al mundo a dos y sin escalas. Algunos trabajarán incluso hoy, pero muchos de los 16 skippers dedican esta jornada a la familia –de la que se separarán durante tres meses- y al descanso –que también durante 90 días estará limitado-.
