After an invigorating night and an express crossing of the English Channel, Alan, Simon, Jessica and Guillaume hung on, all night long, not to let the “big foils” get too far ahead. "We activated the underwater mode and fought all night," says Guillaume. We have no intention of giving up.
Their unfailing determination paid off, as in the early hours of the morning they found their rivals trapped in a windless zone off Ushant, while the passage proved less laborious for them.
With the pressure back on and the wind on the beam, Team AMAALA is now heading for Cape Finisterre, still clinging on to the pack. “We're off again, on flat seas, it's great to sail within sight!”
