The Akka’s Transatlantic Voyage – A Journey Across the Ocean
For over 35 years, the Westera family has shared their love of the ocean through Aruba Watersports Center. But in 2024, they embarked on their biggest adventure yet—a transatlantic crossing aboard their Akka Spronk Catamaran, sailing from Aruba to Las Palmas, Canary Islands.
This journey was more than just a test of skill; it was a dream realized, a tribute to the family’s deep connection with the sea, and an inspiration to adventurers everywhere.
