This means that Hervé on Children Action finished in the 10th position, after a race of 4 days, 15 hours, 4 minutes and 40 seconds.

Without any doubt, sailing is not the quickiest mean of transport! This race has been really slow and long in the end, but the competitors must have learnd a lott.

After a first wave of 16 prototypes on wednesday morning, nothing happened for more than 10 hours. The competitors were figthing against the tide (coeff 90) and there was no wind.

At the new marina of Gunwharf Quay the competitors were doing jobs on their boats, resting and talking about the race. Two boat are still racing tonight and the second leg of the race will start tomorrow at 11:02

Hervé will soon give his opinion about this adventure. Meanwhile, you can have a look at the videos which have been installed.
