He has taken part in ‘Columbus’, a regatta celebrating 500 years since the discovery of America. He is one of the chosen few who took part in one of the biggest and hardest regatta in the world, ‘Whitbread’ in 1993/1994, today known as ‘Volvo Ocean Race’. With his Ukrainian crew, Zivko won 7th place in this challenging race.
