				<![CDATA[
				The Europa Warm'Up, the only fleet event of this size for the Vend&eacute;e Globe contenders before the big date in November, marks an important acceleration in the preparation of this round-the-world. A line up of seven competitors, among the best of the moment, have joined together for this race in two legs; one with crew and the other single-handed, between Spain, Portugal and France. The skipper of Groupe Bel is impatient to confront his opponents. Kito de Pavant shares what is at stake in this new challenge, just 5 days before the much awaited start of the Europa Warm' Up, Saturday 19 May 19 in Barcelona!

				<![CDATA[
				After one hundred days of yard work under great pressure, the Groupe Bel monohull was launched again on Wednesday at Port Camargue. She is now ready to sail new miles to meet Bel workers, but also for the much awaited Vend&eacute;e Globe challenge. Kito de Pavant has a set a date this autumn in Sables d'Olonne to take on the elite of offshore racing in this major event. So returning to sea marks the beginning of a special year for the skipper, his team and his supporters.

				<![CDATA[
				After a long delivery in the Mediterranean, the Sea of Crete and the Aegean Sea, Groupe Bel is expected in Turkey towards end April, for the first date in the season. &quot;On May 5, Groupe Bel will be at the starting line of the Europa Race with 7 other contenders. I really like this event in which we finished 2nd in 2009&quot; recalls Kito. Starting from Istanbul, this race with a crew in three legs will visit Barcelona, Lisbon and La Rochelle where the competitors are expected in early June. Unusually this year, a few months from the Vend&eacute;e Globe, the last leg will be single-handed!

				The end of the winter refit has Port Camargue bubbling with activity! It is a period of stress because deadlines must be met, but it is also the sign of a new beginning, and the arrival of spring marks the beginning of a particu&not;larly important 2012 season!

				<![CDATA[
				Kito is currently busy on all fronts! On the schedule, there is, of course, sport to keep him in shape. But above all, he has to prepare for a particularly busy season: choice of crew for the Europa Race, logistics, meetings with the various partners and suppliers. Everything needs to be finished before the launch planned for end March, which will mark the start of training.

				<![CDATA[
				At the end of December, 10 months from the start of the Vend&eacute;e Globe, Groupe Bel settled in Port Camargue for a winter refit. Kito de Pavant and his team will be paying particular attention to her in the next three months. The stakes are high. They will have to make improvements, confirm them and adapt the 60 foot monohull to the most challenging of adventures, a non-stop single-handed round-the-world, with no assistance.

				Spared by the storm which has swept over the Atlantic in the last few days, Kito de Pavant, currently 230 miles northwest of Cascais, should reach the Portuguese harbor sometime on Saturday. After having sailed more than 3,500 miles single-handed since St Bart's, Groupe Bel's skipper decided to bring two of his loyal team members on board, Gwen Gbick and Brice de Crisenoy to finish the delivery to Port Camargue.

				<![CDATA[
				A week after leaving St Bart's, Kito de Pavant on Groupe Bel, is 500 miles west of the Azores archipelago. It has been a difficult first half of the race to get out of the trade winds, and he has set a northern course to find the leading winds. On Friday, Groupe Bel turned right to cross the Atlantic and the monohull is now in a 20 to 30 knot southwesterly airflow, heading towards Cape St Vincent to the south west of Spain, which he should reach in 4 days. Sail changes, repeated maneuvering and fighting the seaweed; this delivery is no picnic, but is excellent training for the Vend&eacute;e Globe.
