Hervé
is qualified.... a nice race already won!
For the next edition of the Mini-Transat, one
important thing is also to be on the starting lane. This
is Hervé's first winning bet! Because a lot of
competitors will be left on the pontoons...
The place are limited to 55: 25 serials,
25 protos and 5 guests chosen between the organiser and
the Mini Class.
After the Grand-Pavois race, 15 serials
boats (Hervé amongst them) and 21 prototypes were
qualified, having sailed 1000 miles on the compulsory
course and 1000 miles racing.
Amongst this 36 qualified, we note the presence
of a lot of foreigners:
- 5 british, 1 american, 1scottish and 1
swiss (Hervé) who are part of the English Mini-Class
which becomes quite active.
- 1 franco-canadian, 1 cap-verian, 1 maltian,
1 italian and 2 belgiums.
