Crossing the ocean is an extreme challenge, pure adrenaline. And when it comes to extreme challenges, those that not only put to the test physical and mental abilities, but also engage in a fascinating face to face with the forces of nature, it's no wonder the players wear Rudy Project eyewear. And so it is for the Atlantic Odyssey ocean crossing that began in early January from Tarfaya, Morocco heading for the Caribbean island of Barbados. The aim of this expedition is to set an impressive new record: make the crossing in less than 30 days. For this Guinness world record journey involving continuous sailing on board the Sara G., 11 meters long and just under two wide with which they've already set records, the six crew members led by skipper Matt Craughwell wear Rudy Project Zyon Sailing sunglasses designed specifically for navigation at sea. An ultra lightweight frame and metal components with an antioxidant treatment distinguish these glasses that feature Rudy Project's exclusive ImpactX photochromic & polarized lenses. These lenses not only eliminate reflection from the water while preventing eye fatigue and increasing contrast and depth perception, they also offer unique polarization technology. In addition, it's possible to add special side shields to the frame to protect eyes from annoying reflections, wind and splashing water.
