Großer Erfolg für Multiplast
Francis Joyon and his crew win the Trophée Jules Verne, a sixth record for Multiplast boats on this course
IDEC Brest Trophee Jules Verne By crossing the finish line of the Trophée Jules Verne (crewed round-the-world record), Francis Joyon and his five teammates cemented an incredible accomplishement, having traversed the globe in just 40 days 23 hours, 30 minutes and 30 seconds
40 days 23 hours, 30 minutes, 30 secondes!
40 days is almost half the time of that achieved by Bruno Peyron in 1993 on Commodore Explorer during his victory in the first Jules Verne trophy. Such was the Joyon team's pace that on one day they averaged a speed of 37.3 knots, hit speeds of up to 48 knots in the Indian Ocean, and finished 2546 miles ahead at the finish line compared to the previous record. These few figures illustrate just how impressive a feat this was, writing the team's name into the history books and highlighting the fabulous performance of the IDEC Sport trimaran.
