© V Curutchet / Défi Azimut - Lorient Agglomération

At 9:13:09 am, Thomas Ruyant and Morgan Lagravière completed the podium of the Défi Azimut - Lorient Agglomeration offshore race after 1d 18h 05min 09s of racing at an average speed of 13.11 knots.

LinkedOut will have stayed in contact with the fleet, at the head of the fleet, all along the course. Thomas, accompanied by Morgan Largravière, knows his IMOCA boat inside out. The duo has been able to drive their boat at high speed, even reaching 37 knots. A promising performance for the end of the year.

The blue and orange IMOCA did not come back unscathed from these 48 hours at sea. A few laps between the first and third course marks have caused the crew to lose precious miles. The sailors will explain this to us when they return.
