“What’s a French-American nutrition & health specialist, mother and grandmother with an itch to cruise doing in Paraguay? Building a boat, of course, and teaching community nutrition.”

Meet JP & Marie Dufour. They decided to build a catamaran boat in Paraguay they named Domino and used Blue-Kote (click here to see the photos) to protect it while they worked! They set sail – so to speak – and launched it on December 22, 2009. At last check they were delivering the boat to Istanbul where they will meet the LONDON-SYDNEY team in their cancer awareness ride.
