OSLO, Norge og TENERIFE, Spania, March 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

Akkurat nå blir verdens største flaskepost tauet 200 nautiske mil utenfor kysten av Tenerife hvor den vil bli overlatt til havstrømmene i kveld norsk tid. Flasken er konstruert av Hydrolift-eier Bård Eker. På onsdag var det folkefest i Marina San Miguel hvor den ble døpt av eventyreren Jarle Andhøy og Miss Tenerife, nå kan folk over hele verden følge ferden via flaskens Facebook- og twitterprofil.

- Pirater har kommunisert gjennom flaskeposter i århundrer, nå skrur vi tiden tilbake og lar naturen bestemme hvor dette prosjektet vil ende opp, sier Jarle Andhøy. Han tror flasken vil følge i fotsporene til Thor Heyerdahls RA-ekspedisjon og ende på Barbados.


Via både Solos Facebookside og twitterprofilen @solosoftdrink følger nå folk fra hele verden den høyteknologiske flaskens ferd over Atlanterhavet. På Solo.no kan folk gå inn og gjette hvor flasken vil ende opp. Den som gjetter riktig vil motta en flaske Solo for hver nautiske mil den 8 meter lange og 2.5 tonn tunge flaskeposten har drevet, noe som fort kan bli 3-4.000 flasker hvis Andhøys antagelse viser seg å være riktige.


Festgaranti

Inne i den gigantiske flasken er det foruten Solo-flasker et 12 kvadratmeters personlig brev på fem språk til den som finner flasken.

- Vi mener Solo er den beste brusen i verden, men dessverre er det mange utenfor Norges grenser som ikke har fått sjansen til å bli kjent med brusen vår ennå. Det ble altfor vanskelig å bestemme hvem skulle få en smak denne gangen, derfor besluttet vi å "ta en Thor Heyerdahl" og overlate det til havstrømmene. Der flasken ender opp vil vi fly inn med mer Solo og lage en skikkelig fest, sier Sande.


Havnet i havnebassenget

- I vår 79 år lange historie er dette det mest spektakulære prosjektet vi har gjort, og derfor har vi også tatt alle typer forhåndsregler. Flasken har navigasjonslys, Automatic Identification System, radarreflektor og state-of -the-art sporingsteknologi. Den vil bli overvåket kontinuerlig og om nødvendig vil vi bruke en slepebåt for å få den trygt i land der den driver i land, sier Joakim Sande, daglig leder i Solo.

Men selv ikke all verdens sikkerhetstiltak kunne stoppe Miss Tenerife, Sady Chavez Diaz (21), fra å skli av flasken og ende med missekrone og bånd i havnebassenget i Marina San Miguel under en fotoseanse like etter dåpen på onsdag.

- Enda godt det var en badevakt tilstede, for hun kunne visst ikke svømme, forteller Sande.


High-tech flaske

Bård Eker, medeier i Hydrolift, Koenigsegg og Eker Design Group, har konstruert flaskeposten. Vidunderet er selvforsynt med strøm via solcellepaneler og har i tillegg satellitt-tilkobling og GPS-teknologi. Et spesiallaget kamera tar bilder tre ganger i døgnet og laster opp på Solo.no. De første bildene er allerede på Solos nettsider.
