FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., May 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ZEFIRO METHANE CORP. (Cboe Canada: ZEFI) (the “Company”, “Zefiro”, or “ZEFI”) is pleased to announce that Erika Reineke, a yacht-sailing champion who is sponsored by Zefiro, has qualified to be a contender competing for the U.S. in the world’s preeminent athletic competition taking place in France this summer. Ms. Reineke was victorious in the qualifying event held in Miami, which was initially announced by Zefiro in a press release dated February 20, 2024.
“There is a somewhat metaphorical connection between sailing as a sport, and Zefiro Methane Corp. as an environmental services company. Not only is sailing a non-polluting sport, but it is also something that is done using entirely ‘clean’ power in the form of natural winds,” said Zefiro Founder and Chief Executive Officer Talal Debs PhD. Dr. Debs continued, “On behalf of the entire team at Zefiro Methane Corp., we congratulate Erika Reineke on her victory which has qualified her for the summer games in France. The world of sailing is extraordinarily competitive, and we are very proud to have Zefiro’s logo displayed on Erika’s boat sails and sailing gear. I am thankful that Zefiro has been given the opportunity to be an official supporter of Ms. Reineke, whose fierce dedication and competitiveness embodies the spirit of Zefiro as an organization.”
Erika Reineke is a former US Rolex Yachtswoman of the Year (2017), four-time Collegiate Singlehanded National Champion (2013-2016), and four-time NCAA All-American (2013-2015, 2017). Reineke is also a current member of the US SailGP team and the America’s Cup (AC) Women’s team.
