First Arab to ever sail non-stop around the world. After 76 days at sea, Oman’s Mohsin Al Busaidi became the first Arab to ever sail non-stop around the world. He is the SeaSailSurfer of march 2009.
Sailing onboard Ellen MacArthur’s former record-breaking 75-foot trimaran ’Musandam’ alongside four international teammates, 33-year-old Mohsin Al Busaidi has made history and was welcomed home to Muscat a hero.
Mohsin Al Busaidi, who grew up in Al Khoud, a village north of Muscat said : "I am so happy, so proud for my country, it has been the most amazing experience of my life. Although the voyage has only taken 76 days, I have loved sailing and the sea for a long time. This round the world journey has been the key focus for the newly formed Oman Sail project and we wanted to show quickly what could be achieved to inspire others. We’ll continue the voyage of our ancestors who sailed the seas and we’ll build boats and masts, so our children continue the journey after us."
