Geronimo back in Brest
20 February 16:45
Geronimo arrived at home in Brest , at 16:30 (French Time) this afternoon, 7 days after the Skipper’s decision to restart his attempt on the Jules Verne Trophy.
As soon as she was secure alongside, the gennakers that caused the trimaran’s U-turn will have been taken off immediately and transported to the Incidences sail loft in Brest for modification.
The sail makers have put every measure in place to ensure that the necessary changes can be made in the minimum possible time so that the Cap Gemini Schneider Electric team can set sail again as soon as a favourable weather window presents itself.
