Bill Clinton will become 42nd President of the USA. Michael Jordan will score his 20,000th point in the NBA. The year is 1993. On the bracing waters of Galicia, Spain, a new arrival on the grand-prix yachting scene, is going to be reminded how complex sailing is. <\/p>\n<p>While testing the mast bend characteristics on their boat they succeed in breaking 2 masts in a one day. Recovering from the shock and damage they race they step their third, and final, mast and go on to finish a punishing week of racing a disappointing 4th in the 3\/4 ton World Championships. Months of training, careful sail selection, mast tuning, and a long trip from Greece to Spain can only be filled with the lessons learnt from a team that could have but didn&#8217;t. A tiny engineering problem (with the spreaders) and a couple of misplaced screws sunk Atalanti Victory&#8217;s chances of lifting the World Championship trophy that year.<\/p>\n<p><!--AddtoAny scripts --><br \/>\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/static.addtoany.com\/menu\/svg\/icons.29.svg.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/static.addtoany.com\/menu\/page.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/saltybag.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/addtoany.min.js?ver=1.1\" id=\"addtoany-js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!--AddtoAny scripts --><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: -80px;\"><div class=\"addtoany_shortcode\"><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_32 addtoany_list\" data-a2a-url=\"https:\/\/saltybag.com\/el\/saltystories\/73-you-really-learn-from-mistakes-you-digest-properly-the-atalanti-victory-story\/\" data-a2a-title=\"73\"><a class=\"a2a_button_facebook\" href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/add_to\/facebook?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fsaltybag.com%2Fel%2Fsaltystories%2F73-you-really-learn-from-mistakes-you-digest-properly-the-atalanti-victory-story%2F&amp;linkname=73\" title=\"Facebook\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_button_twitter\" href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/add_to\/twitter?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fsaltybag.com%2Fel%2Fsaltystories%2F73-you-really-learn-from-mistakes-you-digest-properly-the-atalanti-victory-story%2F&amp;linkname=73\" title=\"Twitter\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_button_email\" href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/add_to\/email?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fsaltybag.com%2Fel%2Fsaltystories%2F73-you-really-learn-from-mistakes-you-digest-properly-the-atalanti-victory-story%2F&amp;linkname=73\" title=\"Email\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_dd addtoany_share_save addtoany_share\" href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share\"><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You really learn from mistakes you digest properly, the Atalanti V(ictory) story<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/saltybag.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/stories\/5050"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/saltybag.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/stories"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/saltybag.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/stories"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saltybag.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/saltybag.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/stories\/5050\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8092,"href":"https:\/\/saltybag.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/stories\/5050\/revisions\/8092"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/saltybag.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5050"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
