With just a few days to go before the arrival of the top three finishers in the\u00a0Arkea Ultim Challenge-Brest<\/a>, expected in Brest from Monday, Tip & Shaft analyses the week’s events, in particular\u00a0Charles Caudrelier’s stopover in the Azores<\/a>, in the company of sailors\u00a0Lo\u00efck Peyron<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Franck Cammas<\/strong>, and weather routing specialist\u00a0Christian Dumard<\/strong>.
\n<\/em>
\nIn an ideal world,\u00a0it would have been this Friday that Charles Caudrelier would have crossed the finish line<\/strong>\u00a0of the Arkea Ultim Challenge-Brest as the winner after around 47 days at sea, which would have been the second fastest solo time in history, behind Fran\u00e7ois Gabart’s 42 days and 16 hours at the end of 2017. With a lead of more than 2,000 miles over his immediate pursuer, Thomas Coville, the skipper of the Maxi Edmond de Rothschild, faced with\u00a0very rough weather in the Bay of Biscay<\/strong>, made the choice with his routing cell\u00a0to stop in the Azores at 0600 hours on Wednesday<\/a>, to allow two big lows to pass over on the way to Brest.<\/p>\n

“It was very complicated to arrive in the conditions generated by the storm Louis, which has just passed over France, i.e.\u00a08 to 9 metres of seas offshore and winds of 40 knots, gusting to 50 or 60<\/strong>,”<\/em>\u00a0explains Christian Dumard. “There was the possibility of slipping between the two lows, but the timing wasn’t easy to find and the sea state was still very bad. And if anything went wrong, he would have been stuck with this second low, so\u00a0it was a wise decision<\/strong>. It’s a bit like a Formula 1 car that’s one lap ahead and has a minor technical problem, and then stops in the pits to repair, restart and win the Grand Prix.”
\n<\/em>
\nLo\u00efck Peyron agrees:\u00a0“It’s all about managing the lead and the equipment, the very principle of good sailors and good teams<\/strong>. Charles also has the luxury of choosing when to stop, which is even better than having to, as has been the case for the others.”\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

For Franck Cammas, co-skipper of the Maxi Edmond de Rothschild with Charles Caudrelier until 2021,\u00a0“Charles had nothing to gain by taking risks<\/strong>\u00a0in a depression which, as we saw in Brittany, was quite powerful.”<\/em>\u00a0And the man from Aix-en-Provence added:\u00a0“The racing incidents of his rivals also allowed him to make this choice. He’d already been in this frame of mind\u00a0by slowing down 48 hours before Cape Horn, he doesn’t have a record to beat. But\u00a0it’s certain that if they\u00a0had been close, no one would have stopped!<\/strong>“<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“A weird situation”<\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

None of the six sailors setting out from Brest on 7th January will have completed the circumnavigation of the globe without a stopover, which led Franck Cammas to say:\u00a0“Knowing Charles, he must have thought about it, it must have been close to his heart not to make a stopover.\u00a0We’d have liked to see boats sail around the world without touching land<\/strong>\u00a0to prove they were capable of doing it, but in this case, the Maxi Edmond de Rothschild is, she’s not stopping for damage.”<\/em><\/p>\n

What might Charles Caudrelier’s state of mind be, having been at a standstill for almost two days after being alone at sea for the previous 45?\u00a0“It’s quite a weird situation,”\u00a0<\/em>replies Lo\u00efck Peyron.\u00a0“I’ve actually made a stopover like that at the head of a race, with Jean-Pierre Dick in the Barcelona World Race<\/em>\u00a0(2010\/2011), when we stopped in the Cook Strait. We had enough of a lead and the right to do so<\/em>\u00a0(48 hours minimum), so\u00a0it was a strange feeling to have a little glass of red wine on the terrace<\/strong>\u00a0after a shower and a night in the hotel, while still being in the lead of the race.”<\/em><\/p>\n

In\u00a0a press release<\/a>\u00a0sent out on Thursday, the Gitana Team announced a departure from Horta\u00a0“late on Friday, or even Saturday morning”<\/em>\u00a0in conditions which, according to Christian Dumard, don’t look easy:\u00a0“We’re still in some disturbed systems\u00a0<\/strong>with complicated transitions, so there’s a lot of work for the routers. They have to find a good window to sail downwind from start to finish, even if that means covering more miles. The aim is\u00a0to avoid having to make an upwind transition<\/strong>\u00a0in fairly strong north-north-easterly winds, because even though they’ve no doubt taken advantage of the stopover to do a little refit, we can see that\u00a0all the boats are extremely tired<\/strong>\u00a0and not sailing fast. When you see 30 knots, it’s miraculous, when normally that’s the basic speed.”<\/em><\/p>\n

And Actual Ultim 3’s router added:\u00a0“Charles could even wait until Monday to have the same conditions as Sodebo<\/strong>, which is going to round to the west and whose arrival is scheduled for the 28th or 29th. He would then climb to the north and line up ahead of Thomas Coville on the same route, but\u00a0his aim is no doubt to keep more of a margin<\/strong>.”<\/em>\u00a0Charles Caudrelier and his team seem to have everything well in hand, even if Lo\u00efck Peyron warns:\u00a0“We mustn’t imagine that having to stop necessarily makes things easier. On the contrary,\u00a0it breaks the pace<\/strong>\u00a0and makes it all the more difficult to get back into the swing of things.’<\/em><\/p>\n

“The consecration of a boat”<\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

If all goes according to plan,\u00a0Charles Caudrelier is expected in Brest on Monday<\/strong>\u00a0after 50 days at sea… on his 50th birthday. In other words, he would be giving himself a nice birthday present if he were to win, which our experts refuse to say in advance, although they do emphasise\u00a0the great mastery of the skipper and the Gitana Team<\/strong>.\u00a0“If he wins, it will be the victory of a skipper\/boat pairing that knows each other perfectly well,”<\/em>\u00a0analyses Lo\u00efck Peyron.\u00a0“It would also be\u00a0the consecration of a boat, the first flying ocean-going Ultim<\/strong>, and therefore a fine symbolism to see him win the first solo round the world flight. But it’s also the reward for a job well done over a long period of time, a real investment and to have believed in it a little before anyone else, that’s beautiful!”<\/em><\/p>\n

For his part, Franck Cammas isn’t surprised to see his former team-mate in the lead so close to the finish:\u00a0“Charles managed the pace very well, he was able to push the boat and ease off when he needed to. It’s a lot easier when you’re 1,500 or 2,000 miles ahead and it’s clear that the pace changed a lot from the moment Tom\u00a0<\/em>(Laperche)\u00a0dropped out. We would have liked to see what would have happened if he’d stayed in contact, but\u00a0in a race, that’s exactly what you have to do, you manage according to the competition<\/strong>.\u00a0It was a challenge for Charles to get it right, and he knew it was going to be something new in relation to the pace adopted in the transatlantic races”.<\/em>\u00a0The winner of the 2010 Route du Rhum (among others) adds:\u00a0“I think that at times, he must have found the time long<\/strong>, because he feeds off the competition, there wasn’t much of that in the end, the sporting stakes quickly disappeared, I think he regrets that, as do all the people who follow the race.”\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Asked about the absence of any real sporting suspense for a large part of the race, Christian Dumard replied:\u00a0“It’s true that when there are so many distances between the boats, it’s less exciting. It’s a bit of a shame, but\u00a0we knew it would be complicated for the boats to sail around the world without breaking<\/strong>. And for the moment, there are still five competitors in the race out of six, which is the first time that these boats have raced around the world, and even more so solo. This race will allow us to make them more reliable, to better understand their weaknesses and\u00a0one day, a flying boat will circumnavigate the globe in 35 days<\/strong>.”<\/em><\/p>\n
