Sarah Hebert's Transatlantic Sail Starts Today

Feb 21, 2012

Sarah Hebert is set to embark on crossing the Atlantic Ocean on a windsurfer. CLICK HERE to check out a "live tracker"of her voyage.

After a routine doctors appointment it was discovered that Sarah had a serious heart rhythm disorder. As a precaution, doctors advised her to have a defibrillator installed that would ensure she could live a 100 per cent normal life. Only two months after receiving the defibrillator she won the European Windsurfing Championships. With this crossing she is looking to really push her physical and mental limits, because... "with the heart, anything is possible!"

Good luck Sarah!
