No transatlantic race is the same as the another

Message from on board Groupe Bel. 4 years ago, we had already finished the race over three days earlier. With Pietro d'Ali, we won the race, finishing 18 minutes ahead of Lionel LEMONCHOIS and Dominic VITTET, setting a new record in the process (19 days, 22 hours, 24 minutes and 30 seconds).

It is quite possible that we may hold the opposite record in a few days time…

We are trying to overcome our frustrations with what is left of the race. Last night was magical. It had been a rough, cloudy day. Now the sky is totally clear, filled with millions of stars. It is a superb spectacle, especially with headphones clamped on listening to music. Groupe Bel is surfing westwards.
