At the age of 24, Tamara Klink sailed solo across the Atlantic on a boat bought for the price of a bike.
Born in São Paulo, Brazil, March 25, 1997, in a family of sailors. During her childhood, she went to Antarctica 9 times and is passionate about navigation literature.
At the age of 23, she bought an old small sailboat in Norway at the price of a bike, with which she crossed the North Sea solo in 2020 and the Atlantic Ocean in 2021.
She became the youngest sailor in her country, both men and women, to have crossed the Atlantic alone. As a teenager, faced with a growing desire to set sail, she asked her father, the first man to row across the South Atlantic, Amyr Klink, who will consciously refuse to participate in his projects by teaching him to build his career with determination, responsibility and autonomy.
The sailors’ books motivated him to learn French and to study Architecture and Naval Architecture in Nantes.
