Conrad Colman, 100% Natural Energy, Transat New York Vendée (video)
Conrad Colman & 100% Natural Energy - Transat New York Vendée:
After 14 days, 6 hours and 55 minutes of running, 100% Natural Energy arrived in Vendée in 12th spot. Oldest boat in the fleet and after a delayed start of 24, Conrad arrives at a new generation of boat (2015 vs 2005!).
The sequence of 2 Transatlantic allowed Conrad to take stock of the ship's equipment and imagine what could be improved for the Vendée Globe. The Vendée Globe starts on November 6 in Les Sables d'Olonne.
