The ninth edition of the\u00a0Vend\u00e9e Globe<\/a>\u00a0will start November 8, 2020 from Les Sables d’Olonne. As of now there are\u00a0approximately 35 active skippers<\/strong>\u00a0all planning to start the race in 19 months time, some of whom are already building qualification miles to have the best chance of being selected. The\u00a0Notice of Race<\/a>\u00a0limits the number of entries to 30<\/strong>. Tip & Shaft makes a round up of the projects that are vying for selection.<\/em><\/p>\n

At 19 months from the start of the ninth edition of the Vend\u00e9e Globe there is already considerable pressure on skippers\u00a0 who want to be on the start line. And it is now just five months from\u00a0November 1<\/strong>\u00a0which is the deadline for the the ‘statement of application’<\/strong>\u00a0 – the formal notice of intention to compete – that is a mandatory prerequisite for entry, according to Article 8.1 of the\u00a0Notice of Race<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Last December,\u00a0Tip & Shaft counted\u00a029\u00a0<\/strong>candidate projects<\/a>\u00a0pitching for the pinnacle solo ocean race non-stop around the world. Now there are\u00a0more than 35<\/strong>\u00a0(see list below), all aiming to enjoy that emotional journey down the famous the channel out of Les Sables d’Olonne to the start line.<\/p>\n

Many skippers are already in good shape, including no fewer than\u00a018 who have\u00a0foilers (including 8 new boats)<\/strong>\u00a0for skippers who have realised their full budget.\u00a0Right now the notable exceptions include\u00a0Thomas Ruyant,\u00a0<\/strong>who had to abandon the last race, who still is without a title partner.<\/p>\n

And there are still many yet to land sponsors.\u00a0Jean Le Cam\u00a0<\/strong>revealed\u00a0this week in the Ouest-France newspaper\u00a0that he has\u00a0only 15% of the million and a half euros<\/strong>\u00a0which he is looking for if he is to take the start of his fifth consecutive Vend\u00e9e Globe.\u00a0Roman Attanasio\u00a0<\/strong>is also looking to find some of his budget, even if he says he is “sure to leave”.<\/p>\n

Sebastien Destremau\u00a0<\/strong>has had to give up his lofty vision, a project for\u00a0 “4 brothers 4 boats”\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>canning the idea of getting all his brothers on the Vend\u00e9e Globe at the same time. But he also considers himself “sure to leave” for a second time with a small budget of 300 000 euros for his current\u00a0Face Ocean.\u00a0<\/em>But he needs to bring it into line with the current IMOCA measurement and safety rules which means means fulfilling the 180 degree self righting test, without the help of ballast.“For me it would be completely stupid to put on a canting keel both in financial costs and in terms of reliability and safety.”\u00a0<\/em>He is aiming in another direction looking to add enough volume to the deck so that the boat does not roll the other way.’ explains Destremau who thinks to add second-hand foils to his 1998 vintage Finot design.<\/p>\n

Among the newcomers to the race:\u00a0Manu Cousin<\/strong>\u00a0(Groupe Setin<\/em>),\u00a0Clarisse Cr\u00e9mer<\/strong>\u00a0(Banque Populaire<\/em>) and\u00a0Damien Seguin<\/strong>\u00a0(Groupe Apicil<\/em>) all have enough budget;\u00a0Ari Huusela<\/strong>\u00a0(Ariel II<\/em>),\u00a0Alexia Barrier<\/strong>(4myplanet<\/em>),\u00a0Maxime Sorel<\/strong>\u00a0(V&B-Sailing Together<\/em>),\u00a0Cl\u00e9ment Giraud<\/strong>\u00a0(Envol by Fortil<\/em>),\u00a0Miranda Merron<\/strong>(Campagne de France<\/em>) and\u00a0Pip Hare<\/strong>\u00a0(Superbigou<\/em>) don’t yet have their funding packages in place. That’s the case also for Belgian skipper\u00a0Denis Van Weynberg<\/strong>\u00a0who last year bought the former\u00a0Spirit of Hungary<\/em>\u00a0from Nandor Fa. But he will compete in the\u00a0 Transat Jacques Vabre (with his boat-captain Lionel R\u00e9gnier).\u00a0“We set a budget of 1.7 to 2 million euros (ex Tax), we are a little late but not out of the game, we don’t yet have a title partner but it is progressing well, ”\u00a0<\/em>he tells Tip & Shaft.<\/p>\n

Other potential entrants are less certain:\u00a0Erik Nigon\u00a0<\/strong>has not yet landed a buyer for his IMOCA but is also on the hunt for sponsors to go racing. He ranks his chances at 70% of doing the Jacques Vabre and at 50% being at the start of the Vend\u00e9e Globe.\u00a0As for English skipper\u00a0Richard Tolkien\u00a0<\/strong>he is bringing his IMOCA\u00a0Rosalba\u00a0<\/em>up to the rule (a 2001\u00a0Merfyn Owen\u00a0<\/strong>design) after trying to sell it. He hopes to be in the Fastnet and Jacques Vabre (with the Norwegian Rune Aasberg).<\/p>\n

Some newcomers have enough momentum to join the list of candidates. Figarist\u00a0Benjamin Dutreux\u00a0<\/strong>will announce the launch of his project this month, as he said in\u00a0Tip & Shaft\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>in March 2018. He is looking for additional partners, in addition to those who have supported him in the Figaro:\u00a0“We are well advanced on the purchase of a boat that will be financed through a bank loan. Our first objective is to be at the start of the Transat Jacques Vabre “.\u00a0<\/em>The Vend\u00e9e sailor says, reckoning he needs about 500 000 euros for this first year (right now he says he has half of this amount).<\/p>\n

Yoann Richomme,\u00a0<\/strong>who can always fall back on the vintage Lombard designed Vivo A Beira owned by Pierre Lacaze, abandoned his Multi50 ambitions after his Route du Rhum win and hankers after the next Vend\u00e9e Globe, now supported in his searches by Le Hub by OC Sport for whom he is racing La Solitaire URGO Le Figaro.<\/p>\n

Conrad Colman\u00a0<\/strong>is said to be in discussions to charter the former\u00a0Acciona<\/em>\u00a0from Offshore\u00a0Team Germany<\/strong>.\u00a0“We are looking for an operating budget of about 1.5 million euros for the Jacques Vabre and 2020 season,”\u00a0<\/em>says New Zealander Conrad’s wife\u00a0Clara.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In all that means 36 to 38\u00a0IMOCA\u00a0<\/strong>projects, significantly\u00a0above the 30 boat limit<\/strong>\u00a0set by the Vend\u00e9e Globe Notice of Race. The pursuit of the limited number of starts accounts for\u00a0the “race for miles”<\/strong>which has been under way since last year. For those who have not finished the last Vend\u00e9e Globe, nor have a new boat – the two categories which are guaranteed a start (16\u00a0sailors right now) – selection will be decided on number of miles raced in the\u00a0IMOCA Globe Series between 2018 and 2020<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And that is largely the reason for the upturn in IMOCA race entries,\u00a020 skippers<\/a>\u00a0on the last Route du Rhum 2018 (against 9 in 2014),\u00a017 in the Bermudes 1000 Race<\/a>,\u00a0more than 25<\/a>\u00a0in the upcoming Fastnet and “between 28 to 32” in\u00a0\u00a0the Jacques Vabre<\/a>\u00a0(compared with 13 in 2017 and 20 in 2015), according to\u00a0Antoine Mermod<\/strong>\u00a0the president of IMOCA.<\/p>\n

A race for miles is not really part of the game for big projects or names like those of\u00a0Isabelle Joschke\u00a0<\/strong>(1,122 cumulative miles),\u00a0Clarisse Cremer\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Kevin Escoffier\u00a0<\/strong>who are at the bottom of the list. Indeed the latter two have not really go under way, their respective projects start in in July.\u00a0“The\u00a0reality is that right now there is an uncertainty that will last until the summer of 2020<\/em>“, says Isabelle Joschke,\u00a0Ronan Lucas, director of\u00a0Team Banque Populaire\u00a0<\/strong>under whose umbrella rookie Cremer’s project, adds: “I am a little worried, but in terms of our schedule we do not could not do anything earlier.”\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

There may be some who don’t make the cut according to the race for miles (the final ranking will be made after the New York-Vend\u00e9e) but they can apply for one of four wild-cards that SAEM Vend\u00e9e, organizer of the Vend\u00e9e Globe, have in their pocket to allocate. But no one at all wants to bet on that option.\u00a0“For sure there is going to be tension and disappointment for some. It would be simpler if everyone just worked together\u00a0to increase the number of spaces in the port in Les Sables d’Olonne<\/strong>,”\u00a0<\/em>said\u00a0Kevin Escoffier\u00a0<\/strong>who will take over the former PRB.<\/p>\n

“All teams, large or small, invest a lot to find sponsors and develop projects. So it would be a pity that some could remain on the dock. In fact that could then deter people from trying to do the Vend\u00e9e Globe in the future,”\u00a0<\/em>says\u00a0Ronan Lucas.
\nIsabelle Joschke\u00a0<\/strong>agrees:\u00a0“We are working with committed projects requiring a fairly high level of investment. It seems overcomplicated to then refuse entries of a decent quality. We consider that we are a team that is active within the class, we play the game by being present in the fleet since the Monaco Globe Series, and so\u00a0we believe we should deserve our place<\/strong>“.<\/em><\/p>\n

Reflecting skippers worries to the IMOCA class general assembly in mid-April it was decided to ask for the field to be enlarged from the 30. But the response of the organiser, SAEM Vend\u00e9e,\u00a0remains ‘the notice of race is authentic ‘<\/strong>.\u00a0Race Director Jacques Cara\u00ebs emphasizes the increase in the logistical and infrastructure requirements brought by the foilers, some of which have a ‘wingspan of over 11 meters.\u00a0“To accommodate 30 boats, we already need to develop the right side of the pontoon with additional walkways, it is difficult to increase the number of places<\/strong>, unless we put a pontoon in over in the commercial port”.<\/em>\u00a0says Cara\u00ebs.<\/p>\n

And the race director reminds us that though it is hot topic nothing is likely to change before November 1, 2019, the deadline for applications:\u00a0“What Yves Auvinet (president of Vend\u00e9e region) told me rightly is that\u00a0at the moment there are only 18 firm statements of application<\/strong>, so it is difficult to ask them to increase the number of competitors.”\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
