Some incredible fightbacks
After a little over one hour of racing, Marc Guillemot and Charles Caudrelier's monohull Safran won the « Transat Jacques Vabre – Laguna Trophy » prologue in spite of starting off at the rear end of the fleet. Leading the way from the outset, Bruno Jourdren and Nicolas Pichelin grabbed victory in the Class 40 category on Lord Jiminy. There were therefore two victorious new boats today (Saturday 27th October) in Seine Bay on their first official outings. Tomorrow, Sunday, at 2 p.m. the thirteen multihulls will be making their appearance to battle it out in their prologue, which will also be very instructive.
