Actually,the person who fell overboard was Hans Horovich.During the night,a wave hit Hans,he got hit by a grinder ,lost conciousness and fell overboard.ABNAMRO tried to rescue him but they were to late. They were able to retrieve the body but he was already dead.Three days later,they received a message from movistar that they had abanndoned ship.ABNAMRO rescued them shortly after.When they arruved to port,the crew of ABNAMRO received each the medal of sseamanship for their courage while at sea.

Just one correction: The name is Hans Horrevoets, he was a Dutchman. He was a member of the crew chosen from "amateurs" for the ABN AMRO TWO team and trained professionally for the race.
