Sodebo 24 1 2014 by lcoquilleau

BANQUE POPULAIRE, in the hands of Armel Le Cleac’h has set a new 24 hour record for singlehanded sailing; averaging 28.2 knots.

Thomas Coville aboard SODEBO is still behind the record singlehanded around the world set by Francois Joyon and IDEC; but not by much.

Lionel Lemonchois aboard PRINCE DE BRETAGNE is nicely ahead of the record from Brittany to Port Louis in Mauritius.

Classic French singlehanded sailing.
