Alvaro de Marichalar (Spain) crossed the Atlantic on an aquabike (jetski) in 17 days 1 hr 11 min, departing from Hierro, Canary Islands, on 4 May and reaching English Harbour Town, Antigua, on 21 May 2002. He refueled and slept aboard a support vessel (a sailing catamaran), but whenever he was in contact with it, it was allowed to drift to ensure that his journey did not advance.
