He currently owns a small shipyard in Italy and he is building Small Yachts capable of 75+ knots.
One day he took me to a place where the boats he raced with are kept
It was a really amazing time because he walked me around on these nice boats talking to me about his memories. The same time it was very sad time because it was the first time I was in a boat cemetery !!!!

Sad to see all those fine boats rotting away.
