New attempt to get the Jules Verne Cup
“The likelihood of a start window before mid-November is extremely low, but you have to be prepared to grab any opportunity if it presents itself. The earlier we start this season, the more favorable the Atlantic crossing can be for us. However, it is impossible to foresee everything in any case. The season is relatively short and ends in February. We can hit the road as soon as the wind allows us. And even if the situation is not ideal, we will take the risk at the most favorable moment. "
