Wilde supports a world record attempt

Wilde was a proud sponsor for South Africa's Premier 15th annual 24 hour Dinghy Endurance event, which took place over the weekend, at the Milnerton Aquatic Club (MAC).  There were 50 boats and over 400 sailers competing in the event, sailing continuously for 24 hours in an attempt to break a world record.
The world record of distance sailing over a 24 hour period was accomplished in the U.K. and stands at 253.94kms.  Since then, the sailers of MAC have tried to smash this record with the closest attempt in 2000 reaching 244.15kms.  
At all MAC events, entrance is fee of charge for spectators to come through and support the competitors and enjoy the scenic views of table mountain.
