In the coming months, la Trinité-sur-Mer will live to the rythm of the multihull MOD70 N°05 Spindrift racing’s training program with the N°03 Foncia, with the bay of Quiberon and the Glénans’ islands as their playground.

Since last Monday, the crew in place has entered its active phase of training and development of the boat in order to uncover all the secrets of this "Formula 1" of the seas.

"It is a learning phase where we really discover the boat and try to grasp all of its aspects" said Yann Guichard just returning from a training and calibration session in around 18 knots of breeze and a flat sea, providing perfect conditions. "I appreciate this monotype format because it allows men to be at the forefront; the crew will make the difference on this circuit" he adds. "When Michel Desjoyeaux proposed to train together, I didn’t hesitate. Besides the fact that he is an excellent competitor, he knows how to choose his crew. We will try to share and work on the small adjustments, to improve and be competitive for the start of the first race in New York, "added the skipper of Spindrift racing.

First trainings’ pictures are available on the official website www.spindrift-racing.com and on the Spindrift racing facebook page.
