Hervé Favre website for the 2001 mini-transat

 

 

 

7 May 2001: Hervé finished 18th of the Select 6.50

Hervé arrived this morning at 8:30. 34 serial mini started the race and Hervé came 18th. Great performance.

The wind was quite strong and he used only two of his sails.He also broke the spinnaker halyard. During 45 hour race, he slept 20 minutes on 10 occasions and managed to eat two hot meals. He also suffered from the cold: this morning it was only 2 degrees.

Well done for Simon on QDF who finished 2nd of the prototypes and for Samantha on Aberdeen Asset Management who took the 7th place.
