A perfect score
Emeric Dary and David Fanouillère won on Sunday 3rd August their fifth leg of the Costarmoricaine sport catamaran raid, that they largely dominated, by winning each of the five legs of the thirty-year old event organized by the Club de Voile de la Baie d’Erquy (CVBE).
They thus win the title of F18 World Raid Champions, the Costarmoricaine was the support event this year.
“A superb edition, comments Olivier Bovyn, president of the CVBE. During the last leg, the wind gradually collapsed, and some competitors made small tuning changes to continue advancing, then the sea breeze came from the back, which allowed the fleet to gather a bit. But similar to previous days, Emeric Dary & David Fanouillère have been the winners of this last leg.
This edition has been characterized by good and various sailing conditions, as well a good atmosphere. After 32 years, we never get fed up of the magnificent landscapes provided by Côtes d’Armor and the course still remains technically and physically demanding.”
