Tip &amp; Shaft took the opportunity to discuss this with Race Director\u00a0<strong>Denis Hugues<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>First let&#8217;s talk about the Vend\u00e9e Globe: 18 of the 33 sailors who started the race came through the Mini Transat, that\u2019s a great recognition for the race?<\/strong><br \/>\nCompletely! We always said that\u00a0<strong>the Mini was the school of offshore racing<\/strong>, the Vend\u00e9e Globe is a really the pinnacle, the culmination of It all and it&#8217;s true that a lot of sailors start off in the Mini thinking one day they may end up doing the Vend\u00e9e Globe.\u00a0<strong>It is a natural progression.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>What can the Mini Transat teach a future candidate for Vend\u00e9e Globe?<\/strong><br \/>\nWell for a start\u00a0<strong>it is about mainly to fend for themselves<\/strong>. On the Mini there is no long range communication system and so when they have a problem &#8211; which always happens on a long race of about 30 days like the Mini &#8211; they are forced to fix things for themselves, without outside assistance, to get to the other side. Today, even though now the Vend\u00e9e Globe skippers have the opportunity to call their team on land, they are very much in the same mode, in the end it is the skippers who have\u00a0the tools in their hands and\u00a0<strong>that is what many learn in particular on the Mini<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you have any favourites or skippers you really like in the Vend\u00e9e Globe?<\/strong><br \/>\nNo, it wouldn\u2019t be right to say. I organised the Mini Transat and am now the Race Director. I always say my favourite is the final one to cross the line. Having said that,\u00a0<strong>I\u2019m pleased for all the former Mini entrants<\/strong>. It clearly shows they have come a long way, with in particular three former Mini winners, Yannick (Bestaven, 2001 in the prototypes), Thomas (Ruyant, 2009 on a prototype) and Armel (Tripon, 2003 on a prototype). But there are others too with people like Pip Hare and Cl\u00e9ment Giraud, who also sailed in the Mini class. They weren\u2019t in the Top 10, but we\u2019ve seen that they are good sailors who manage to deal with things. To be honest\u00a0<strong>when Pip changed her rudder, it was not an easy thing to do<\/strong>. We can also see with some of the girls doing the Vend\u00e9e, that\u00a0<strong>almost all of them previously did the Mini-Transat<\/strong>\u00a0[5 out of 6: Pip Hare, Sam Davies, Isabelle Joschke, Alexia Barrier, Clarisse Cr\u00e9mer, editor\u2019s note] because it is easier to enter than many other offshore races. Once again, they are doing particularly well.\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>&#8220;What stands out this year<br \/>\nis the turn-over&#8221;<\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n<div>\n<strong>Let\u2019s talk about the next Mini Transat. There has been a change of organiser, as well as the ports for the start, stopover and finish. Is this like starting over from scratch again?<\/strong><br \/>\nNo, not from scratch, because there are a lot of things returning. Firstly, there is a different relationship with the organiser who is new and alongside us and has to learn how to organise the Mini, which is a\u00a0major race, as we can see with the number pre-registered.\u00a0<strong>A new team had to be formed<\/strong>\u00a0which is what Marc Chopin is doing [president of the Les Sables d\u2019Olonne Vend\u00e9e Ocean Racing centre], and that is bound to take a while.\u00a0<strong>It\u2019s even more complicated this year with the health situation<\/strong>. We have no clear idea about what things will be like in the autumn of 2021, so it\u2019s not easy to manage, as we don\u2019t know if all the work will pay off or not.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The organisers received 126 applications to pre-register for the 84 places available. Is that usual?<\/strong><br \/>\nIt\u2019s fairly close and proves that the Mini Transat remains as attractive as ever.\u00a0<strong>What stands out this year is the turn-over<\/strong>, which is higher than in previous years: in 2020, 80% of the racers were people I had never seen in the Mini circuit. So the standard wasn\u2019t very high in the first races, but I think that by the start, they will all have made progress.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2020 saw many races cancelled. Do you not fear that the entrants are lacking preparation for ocean racing?<\/strong><br \/>\nNo, that is not really a worry, as there is a clear programme in place this year with a lot of opportunities for the competitors to clock up the miles. So\u00a0<strong>if all goes well, all of the entrants will have done their 2500 miles<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 the distance required to get the qualification. It is important for the racers not only to improve their performance, but also get to grips with their boat and deal with everything alone. During these 2500 miles, they are bound to encounter problems they need to deal with and that will allow them to cope at the start of the Mini.\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>&#8220;Tanguy Bouroullec is<br \/>\na bit ahead in the prototypes&#8221;<\/em><\/strong><\/div>\n<div>\n<strong>Do we already have an idea about the stand-out performers or favourites for this race?<\/strong><br \/>\nWe will have to wait for the first two races of the season, but I think that Tanguy Bouroullec is a\u00a0bit ahead in the prototypes.\u00a0<strong>His boat won all the races he took part in last year<\/strong>\u00a0[\u201cLes Sables-Les A\u00e7ores en Baie de Morlaix\u201d with him at the helm, then the \u201cMini en mai\u201d with Ambrogio Beccaria who went ton to win the \u201cDuo Concarneau-BFR Mar\u00e9e Haute\u201d with Am\u00e9lie Grassi, editor\u2019s note]. Particularly seeing\u00a0<strong>the faster boats from 2019 are now in the hands of new skippers<\/strong>: Fabio (Muzzollini) with Tartine [Axel Tr\u00e9hin\u2019s old boat, editor\u2019s note], Romain Tellier on 865 [winner of the last two editions with Ian Lipinski and then Fran\u00e7ois Jambou, editor\u2019s note]. These are demanding boats in terms of adjustments, so it will take them a while to settle in.\u00a0<strong>In the series boats, some are already very fast, like L\u00e9o Debiesse and Hugo Dhallenne<\/strong>, but I wouldn\u2019t call them favourites today, as it is too soon. I think in any case that\u00a0<strong>it may be more open than previous editions<\/strong>, when we knew from the time of the registrations that there were sailors who knew their boats well and could be ranked among the favourites.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Some series boats were already present in the last Mini,\u00a0David Raison\u2019s Maxi and Etienne Bertrand\u2019s Vector. Will there be others for this race and what do you think about their potential?<\/strong><br \/>\nThere is\u00a0<strong>a new Italian series [Wevo 6.50]<\/strong>, but in my opinion, it is a bit below the Maxis, the highest number and the Vectors. The Vector is not a bad boat, but I think that it is very tricky to set up to sail quickly. I hope the owners will have the time to find the right settings and be up there doing battle with the Maxis.\u00a0<strong>We mustn\u2019t forget the Pogo 3<\/strong>\u00a0which is a tried and tested boat, easy to sail, even if its gets very wet in comparison with the Maxi in particular. We saw last season that\u00a0<strong>the Maxis encountered quite a few reliability issues<\/strong>, in particular structural problems. I hope the yard has sorted that out, so we don\u2019t have that sort of problem in the transatlantic race.<\/p>\n<p><strong>To finish with the prototypes, you said Tanguy Bouroullec&#8217;s boat\u00a0was among the favourites. She is one of the rare boats fitted with foils. Are foils the future of the Mini?<\/strong><br \/>\nI have a lot of doubts about foils on Minis. We have seen fantastic pictures of boats with foils taking off, except that each time it is on sheltered waters, which is never the case at sea. We rarely have a classic swell, but rather cross seas.\u00a0<strong>I can\u2019t see a 6.5m boat flying a lot.<\/strong>\u00a0I talked to Tanguy about that after the les Sables-Les A\u00e7ores en Baie de Morlaix last year, and he said that all in all, out of the three legs, he only really foiled for six hours\u2026<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><em>Photo: Christophe Breschi<\/em><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new organizers of\u00a0the Mini Transat announced that the 2021 edition, which will start on September 26 in Les Sables d&#8217;Olonne and heads to Saint-Fran\u00e7ois, Guadeloupe, via Santa Cruz de La Palma, is already\u00a0full\u00a0with\u00a0126 pre-enrolled for 84 places.
