Munguva ye2016-2020, huwandu hwegumi nemapfumbamwe masts pakati pe
zvikepe zvitsva zvisere zvichavakwa uye kutengwa kwekutsiva maists. Yese inogadzirwa neiyo chete mold iripo pasina matambudziko maererano nekutakura. Asi kubva pakutanga kwa2021 zvinhu zvave zvakaoma nekuda kwekuwedzera kweiyo yekupedzisira Vendée Globe. Saizvozvo, vatengi vedu veLorima shipyard vakawedzerawo kudiwa kwezvigadzirwa zvakanyanya.
