Christopher Pratt (France) - Charal (IMOCA)

"It's going OK, we’re in the Bay of Biscay in very strong conditions with big seas and 20-25 knots of wind, we’re shifting! These are conditions we’ve already experienced in training. Last night, we made a lot of manoeuvres and both spent time on deck.

“We should emerge from the influence of the front into an area of lighter wind. It's a decent pace and we'll have to get used to it because it's going to be like this until Bahia. Now, I'm on deck, I’m adjusting the autopilot. Jeremy is in the bunk, we’re trying to take turns often to stay fresh.”
