“6 ISL matches in a month and a half, 12 starts and races with world-class swimmers. And he had the task of “driving” all the stages so that the team could get the maximum points. Other teams followed a slightly different tactic. It was a tremendous effort, and I felt it physically and morally in the semifinals and the final.

I lost my sense of water. It was my first marathon of this type in my entire sailing career. And it showed that I still have room for improvement. I will do it. But now I want to rest. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support, “wrote D. Rapšys after appearing on Facebook.
