The German producer of the effective and strong windgenerators, Superwind helps the Tres Hombres. Because of another boat damaging the Tres Hombres, which was anchored, the blades of one of the windgenerators broke. Those windgenerators are the most important source of energie of the Tres Hombres and thus of big importance. Superwind immediatly wanted to help us out and sends 3 new blades to the ship in the Caribean. www.superwind.com
