By finishing the last leg in second place in Roscoff, and thanks to exemplary steadfastness since sailing from Valence, Lalou Roucayrol and his crew have won the first edition of this European crew race in the Multi 50 category.
"We owe this first victory to the crew's sporting and strategic qualities, as well as to the boat's performances" commented Lalou Roucayrol.
The skipper and his crew were indeed able to test, throughout the race, the technical benefits of the material Altuglas ShieldUp and the AEC Polymers structural adhesives in terms of weight reduction, absorption of impact, and mechanical strength.
This victory is the culmination of over 22 000 man-hours during a 17-month construction period together with the bold decision to opt for materials that combine innovation and performance!
