Vendée Globe?

[PaulK]

Jean Le Cam finished in a driving rain tonight: 8th across the line. A tight race after sailing around the world: His redress time will move him up to 4th.

A tight race after sailing around the world

Just a few hours after 80 plus days at sea! A tight race indeed.

Not only that, he was a non-foiler if I remember.

Jean le Cam was first across the line with a non-foiling boat. It's a much older boat, but he's also had it for a long time so knows the limitations and knew how to push it.

Upset of the race? Yannick Bestaven has now taken 1st place on 10hrs. 15 min redress.

He apparently also sustained hull damage back around the Kergulens that he didn't talk about until after he finished.
