Ritmul neobosit al liderilor din Vendée Globe continuă în timp ce se îndreaptă spre Capul Bunei Speranțe, dar toți sunt atenți la bărcile lor și la felul în care se descurcă în condițiile dificile. Yoann Richomme despre Paprec Arkéa ne oferă o actualizare despre cât de greu este să găsești acest echilibru, nu doar pe barcă, ci și asupra marinarilor înșiși. #vg2024 #imoca #vendeeglobe #sailing

Great update, again. Thanks.
Does he really throw out his drone while racing? Or is it just not the actual footage?
Love the updates ❤️
You are my daily "go to" channel, which keeps me in the loop on VG fleet progress with snippets from individual sailors. ❤ it!!! With presently sunny greetings and warm regards from Germany.
579 knots-666 miles. Talk about going like the devil himself!
Great update but…….
Why the continual reference to pressure rather than wind? More often than not low (atmospheric) pressure will be associated with stronger winds and vice versa.
Love the short but effective summaries. 579 nm is crazy fast.
Thank you for your straight forward unembellished factual commentary
As comparison:
Flying Cloud holds the record for the fastest 24-hour run by a clipper ship, sailing 374 miles in one day on July 31, 1851, which is over 15.5 miles per hour.
Sovereign of the Seas was the first ship to travel more than 400 nautical miles (740 kilometers) in 24 hours in 1854.
Sovereign of the Seas recorded the fastest speed for a large wooden sailing ship, logging 22 knots (41 km/h) in 1854.
Can you imagine the noise from the wind, waves, cracking wood and flapping sails on board those wooden giants.
What type of drone can fly in such conditions? The footage is awesome 🤩
Weiß jemand, wie hoch die Boote am Wind segeln können… wieviel Grad…??
Weather forecast is not correct
This lows are moving faster than the boats to the east.
There’s no lighter pressure before Cape Town. And then stronger at cape town.
They will catch the next low coming from the west.
top-notch reports, thank you Mark!
Tough living cinditions. Fluctuating wind speeds, mixed sea state, fast, relentless pounding, difficult to sleep, chasing the next low.
