03:43est pour le bateau et ensuite pour moi.
03:47Tu me dis que tu n'as pas le temps,
03:49donne-moi un jour typique pour toi, 24 heures pour toi,
03:53le soleil s'est venu en la matinée,
03:56parce que tu es un peu comme moi,
03:58je ne lis quand je suis en train,
04:00mais j'ai beaucoup de temps.
04:02Descrivez-vous, le soleil s'est venu,
04:04le soleil s'est venu.
04:06Ma clock est chaque 4 heures sur le YB3.
04:11Ce n'est pas quand le soleil s'est venu,
04:14car c'est le UTC.
04:16Donc chaque 4 heures sur le UTC,
04:18je suis sur le YB3.
04:22Je prends une photo,
04:24donc je n'ai pas besoin de temps.
04:26C'est sur le track,
04:27de regarder les autres positions.
04:29Exactement.
04:30Donc je prends des photos,
04:31et puis je prends le Windy,
04:35et je prends des photos,
04:37donc chaque 4 heures,
04:38pour les deux jours,
04:40de la GFS,
04:42et l'ECW...
04:44C'est ma préférée.
04:46C'est ma préférée.
04:47C'est la 2 grid prediction.
04:49Et puis,
04:52si j'ai le temps,
04:54je me regarde sur le Whatsapp,
04:56si j'ai quelque chose,
04:57ou sur le Facebook.
04:58Et puis je close Starlink.
05:00C'est chaque 4 heures.
05:03Donc je prends Starlink
05:05sur les 4 heures.
05:06Oui.
05:07Pour avoir le temps correct,
05:09pour savoir exactement
05:10ce que les autres font.
05:12Si ils font vite,
05:13ou pas vite,
05:14ou si ils vont quelque part.
05:16Donc,
05:17chaque 4 heures,
05:185 knots.
05:19Si ils vont plus,
05:20c'est 20 miens.
05:21Donc,
05:22ce n'est pas tellement.
05:24c'est bon.
05:25Et puis,
05:27chaque fois qu'il je peux dormir,
05:29je vais dormir.
05:30C'est très important.
05:32C'est très important.
05:34Dans le matin,
05:35dans le soleil,
05:36quand le soleil est au.
05:37ou quand le soleil est au.
05:39Pour moi,
05:40c'est important
05:41d'être sur le deck.
05:42C'est ce qui est le 2 moments,
05:44que j'ai préféré
05:45pendant les 24 heures.
05:47Oui, c'est beau, c'est beau, c'est beau, c'est pas trop chaud, pas trop chaud, c'est souvent pas trop chaud, c'est un bon moment, donc j'ai essayé d'être sur le deck à ce moment.
06:02Quand j'ai le forecast de weather, j'ai étudié, comparé à ce que j'ai observé, la pluie où ils sont, une photo de la pluie de la pluie, et j'ai décide si j'étais avant ou après la prediction de la pluie, et j'ai décide quel cours je vais faire.
06:25Il n'y a jamais de 20 degrés ou de 20 degrés sur le autre, jamais, mais j'ai décide si je veux être un peu plus haut, un peu plus haut, ou si j'ai dû aller plus vite, c'est l'un des points.
06:40Et parfois, tu n'es pas assez avant le système, donc le système va revenir à toi, et tu n'auras jamais vu le bon vent que tu as besoin.
06:50Donc, à ce moment-là, j'ai essayé. C'était le cas entre Marquises et Papete. La prediction de la pluie a été dit, une grande pluie et une pluie, je crois que tu disais, c'est des squalls ?
07:05Oui, les squalls, oui. Pour les deux amateurs, c'était un Friday morning, et j'étais le matin, le Marquises, donc c'était un average de 126 miens pour être là, par jour.
07:18Donc, j'ai dû pousser, donc j'ai poussé, poussé, poussé, poussé sur le bateau, 18 heures de steering par jour.
07:26J'étais juste vivant dans mon cockpit.
07:28Non, effectivement.
07:30Donc, il n'y a pas été typique.
07:33Chaque jour est différent. Chaque jour dépendamment au weather, qu'est-ce que les autres sont, et le commentaire de dormir.
07:42Oui.
07:42Je ne meIntens pas plus que pour une heure.
07:46C'est plus 55 minutes, parce que maintenant je suis envers le balon, tout le temps.
07:53Et puis je vérifie tout le monde, je vérifie la vitesse, je vérifie tout le monde.
08:00Et si c'est tout bien, je vais dormir, 2, 3, 4, 5 fois, n'a jamais plus.
08:08Qu'est-ce que les électroniques que vous avez pendant le jour, comme le Chartplotter,
08:12l'AIS, les bits et les pieces ? Comment vous pouvez-vous managez votre consommation ?
08:16J'ai mon navigateur et l'AIS 24 heures, donc je n'oublie pas de switcher à l'AIS.
08:26Avec vos nav-lites aussi ?
08:27Oui.
08:28Vous êtes comme moi, je me souviens.
08:29J'ai switché à l'AIS et j'arrive.
08:33Il n'y a pas beaucoup d'électricité, il y a l'aide, donc c'est OK.
08:37La AIS est la même, et sur ma train de AIS, j'ai mon course, j'ai mon speed, j'ai mon bearing, j'ai la latitude, longitude,
08:45donc c'est parfait.
08:46Donc j'ai toutes les informations nécessaires pour le vendre correctement.
08:53Le Chartplotter, je ne l'utilise pas vraiment.
08:57Je l'utilise sur mon téléphone, qui est Navionics, et j'ai un deuxième, parce que quand vous avez
09:04Navionics, vous pouvez avoir deux devices.
09:06Donc j'ai mon téléphone et mon tablette, et ils sont liés ensemble.
09:11Donc j'ai l'information sur l'autre, j'ai l'information sur l'autre.
09:14J'ai, bien sûr, un Chartplotter.
09:17Si quelque chose est mauvais, je peux utiliser un Chartplotter.
09:20Mais je pense que trop de devices n'est pas possible.
09:25Oui, absolument.
09:26Vous avez des batteries de lithium, ou des batteries de gel ?
09:30Oui, des batteries de lithium.
09:32Les batteries de lithium, j'ai 150 watts sur le deck.
09:38Oui.
09:39C'est assez suffisant.
09:40C'est assez suffisant.
09:41C'est assez suffisant.
09:42Oui.
09:43C'est assez suffisant.
09:44C'est assez suffisant.
09:45Nous avons eu 3 ou 4 jours sans trop de l'eau.
09:50Sans trop de l'eau.
09:51Mais pas trop de l'eau.
09:52Et la batterie est de 70%.
09:55Pas 70, mais 30.
09:58Ok ?
09:59C'est assez suffisant.
10:00Oui.
10:01C'est assez suffisant.
10:02C'est assez suffisant.
10:03Je pense que j'ai besoin de 8 amp pour l'IES per 24 heures.
10:10Et c'est la même pour le Starlink.
10:13Oui.
10:14C'est assez suffisant.
10:15C'est 2 et 1,5 amps, 12 volts, Starlink.
10:18Le consommation.
10:19Deux à 2,5 amps.
10:20Oui, c'est 2 et 1,5 amps.
10:22Oui.
10:23C'est 2,5 amps.
10:24Oui, c'est 6 times a day.
10:27Donc, c'est pas tellement.
10:28Oui.
10:29Ok.
10:30Et donc, en ce qui concerne votre métier de l'eau,
10:32vous savez, les clés deières de Panama,
10:34vous avez besoin de 100 litres quand vous débrassez.
10:38Mais, eh, ce qui concerne votre métier ?
10:40J'ai pris 160, car c'est peut-être 50 jours, et je compte 3 litres par jour.
10:49Et sur ceci, j'ai pris le 9 litres, dans le 10 litres, avec le hallier.
10:55Et sur ceci, j'ai pris 40 autres litres pour ma propre washing, ou ce qu'il y a.
11:04J'ai gardé la beauté.
11:04C'est clean, et de-salt, car je n'aime pas être salty dans l'intérieur, donc j'ai pris 40 litres.
11:15Pour l'arrivée à Marquises, les 40 litres étaient off, et j'ai encore 60 de mes 160.
11:30Donc, ça veut dire que j'ai utilisé 100, mais sur 34 jours, c'est 30 litres par jour.
11:37Oui, oui, c'est OK.
11:41Et donc, vous êtes vivant un long temps sur un petit bateau.
11:45J'ai dû avoir de la première aide très souvent, vous savez-vous ?
11:48La première aide aide, comme votre santé, j'ai eu l'air de la première aide très souvent.
11:53Non, de la MSOS, je n'ai jamais ouvert le bag.
11:55Oui, OK.
11:56Et j'ai ouvert le bag en Marquises, pour voir si certaines medicines sont prohibites ou pas.
12:04Oh, oui ?
12:05Mais je ne savais pas, même si je ne savais pas.
12:07Donc j'ai dit aux médecins, j'ai le MSOS kit.
12:12J'ai dit, qu'est-ce que c'est ?
12:13J'ai dit, oh, juste mentione MSOS kit, et ça sera OK.
12:18Let's go.
12:19Yeah, let's go.
12:20Non, je n'ai pas utilisé, oui, peut-être quelque chose pour la tête, trop long au sol.
12:26Yeah.
12:26Ou une crème pour la peau.
12:29Ce n'est pas une maladie, ce n'est pas une maladie, c'est juste normal.
12:34Yeah.
12:35Normal care.
12:35Donc, qu'est-ce que vous pensez, vous savez, ou non, la réalité de la saison, vous savez,
12:41cette dernière fois, toutes les stages,
12:44what would you say is the biggest challenge for you
12:48and the biggest challenge for the boat?
12:50Oh, we've got a plane going over.
12:51Anyway, just hang on a sec, we'll wait until that goes through.
12:54That's a big one, it's a turboprop.
12:56Feels like a military one.
12:58Yeah.
12:59So, yeah.
12:59Anyway, now, so, what do you perceive as your,
13:03as your personally, personal biggest challenge for this last leg
13:07and the biggest challenge for the boat?
13:09You mean, what was the hardest for me?
13:11Yeah, the biggest challenge or the hardest, yeah, the, the, yeah.
13:15So, the hardest for me was to be alone in front of the fleet
13:19because when you have only 20 miles, you are near the fleet,
13:24so you can control something.
13:26When you are more, like 100 or 200, and happen 250,
13:30you are in another system.
13:32Yeah.
13:33So, you are racing against yourself, maybe like a GGR.
13:37No, you are racing against yourself, and you cannot compare to the others.
13:43Even we have one design class.
13:47Sometimes they were one month faster than me, so I was tired,
13:51and I was, oh, I have grass, oh, I have something in the kill, and,
13:55but then thinking, talking with my boat manager,
13:59and, no, no, you are far, you don't have the same condition,
14:03don't worry, just sail like you know how to sail,
14:07and everything will be fine, okay?
14:10That, this is, when you used to be a close or inland, in, in, in bay racer,
14:16sometimes it's difficult to, uh, to have the approach of, uh,
14:21be calm, and you have, you have, you have long distance ahead of everyone,
14:27so it's okay, but this, this was one of the, one big challenge.
14:32The other big challenge was for the boat.
14:37The boat is, is fast for this length,
14:41but it's slow compared to the weather system,
14:45so it's, it's, it's completely different to approach the system.
14:50You cannot say, I will get this one,
14:54but you can say, I will try to avoid to have this one.
14:58You understand?
14:59Yeah.
14:59That was the question, coming from Papete to Tonga,
15:06it was organized with a big weather, hard weather, south,
15:12and, uh, good weather north.
15:15So, of course, going south, we have, was a bit shorter,
15:22maybe a bit faster,
15:23but you have the risk to have too much wind and too much waves,
15:28because when the grip said 30 knots,
15:31this is an average,
15:33and it's easy 40, 45, or 25.
15:38Uh, no, 45 is too much for the class 580.
15:42Yeah.
15:42That's my opinion.
15:44Oh, yeah.
15:45So, I, so I decide not to have the south weather.
15:49I decide to have the north weather, which was more calm.
15:53We still had the squalls, quite, quite strong,
15:5730, 35 plus, west wind all the night, twice.
16:01It was hard to go south, uh, at this moment,
16:05but, was three down in the main,
16:10half of the jib,
16:11down of the waves,
16:14no wind,
16:15because there were four meters,
16:18and up of the wave,
16:19too much wind.
16:20So, the boat,
16:21all the night was on the side,
16:23back again,
16:24on the side,
16:24every, maybe,
16:2517 seconds,
16:26every wave.
16:27So, this was a good,
16:28a hard challenge.
16:29Yeah.
16:30Yeah.
16:30So, the speed of the boat,
16:3145, the boat will take 45 knots,
16:33but it's not fast,
16:34and it's not fun,
16:35unless you've got plenty of sea room,
16:36and going down,
16:37we'd let a bear poles,
16:38or something.
16:38So, yeah,
16:39I know what you're saying.
16:40Yeah.
16:40Um, okay.
16:41So, that's the biggest challenge with the boat,
16:43it's just speed and weather,
16:44you know,
16:45being able to, uh,
16:46go there.
16:46Yes.
16:47Um, what about the biggest challenge,
16:48living on board?
16:49You know,
16:50like, the,
16:50the one thing that stand out for you,
16:52is, you know,
16:53wish the boat was bigger,
16:54or different.
16:54The knee.
16:55The knee.
16:56Because you are always,
16:58you don't have,
16:58you don't use your foot,
17:00you use your knee,
17:01and, uh,
17:04the difficulty to stretch yourself,
17:07and to use all your muscles correctly.
17:11You are always in a strange position,
17:14so you develop some muscle,
17:16but you lose your,
17:18um,
17:20uh,
17:21the one you use when you're on earth.
17:23Flexibility and,
17:24yeah.
17:24Yeah.
17:25So, the legs are,
17:27diameter of the legs are going,
17:29everything is going shorter,
17:30but the side,
17:32here,
17:33are going bigger,
17:34because of the movement.
17:36Yeah.
17:36The, the, the, the,
17:38the knee,
17:38yeah,
17:39and the muscle is,
17:40it's a big problem.
17:41Yeah.
17:41Yeah.
17:42Interesting.
17:43Okay.
17:43And,
17:44to me,
17:45you know,
17:46as, uh,
17:46you know,
17:47putting this whole thing together,
17:48the biggest change,
17:49that I had no comprehension of,
17:51when we came up with the idea of the MGR,
17:53is Starlink.
17:54It's just,
17:54Starlink is just crazy.
17:56It's insane,
17:57in terms of what it's able to do,
17:58and how relaxed people watching movies,
18:00and TV series,
18:01and bringing family and friends,
18:03and all this sort of stuff all the time.
18:05Do you,
18:06do you think that's a good thing,
18:07or a bad thing,
18:08for the experience,
18:09in terms of what you wanted to achieve from the MGR?
18:13Because it was,
18:13it didn't exist when we announced it,
18:15you know.
18:15As far as I remember,
18:17when you put the first notice of race,
18:20was during COVID,
18:22at the Amsterdam boat show,
18:25must,
18:26or was to be,
18:27but not,
18:28it does not happen.
18:29Yeah.
18:29we had no comms,
18:33we had no electronic,
18:35or IES only,
18:37and everything had to be,
18:38done by the Celestrian,
18:41that's what I remember,
18:43and I was,
18:44really happy of this.
18:46Okay.
18:48Now,
18:48at the beginning,
18:51I had the Eridium Go exec,
18:53because the Eridium Go is just useless,
18:56but I had the exec,
18:57which is,
18:58which allows you to download the grid,
19:01and to make some chat,
19:04text chat on WhatsApp,
19:08and it was okay for me.
19:10It was okay.
19:11But in Panama,
19:12everyone takes Starlink,
19:14and I said,
19:15if I want,
19:16I was ahead,
19:17at the Transat,
19:18I was ahead on the first leg,
19:19and I want,
19:19said,
19:19Capuchinette is fast,
19:21Capuchinette is ready,
19:22if I want to improve,
19:23and to be better,
19:25so I had to take Starlink,
19:26so I take Starlink.
19:28So,
19:29I think,
19:30what is good,
19:30is that everyone has the same,
19:33then after,
19:34it is what it is.
19:38Yeah.
19:38So if I said to you,
19:40in terms of the event,
19:43would you rather have it,
19:45or not have it?
19:45If we said everyone,
19:46you can't have Starlink anymore,
19:47do you think that would be a problem?
19:51For me,
19:51it won't be a problem,
19:52but for some,
19:53it would be a problem.
19:55Yeah.
19:55For sure.
19:56Yeah.
19:56Because,
19:58we are not,
19:59all of us,
20:01only racing.
20:03Me,
20:04I am racing,
20:06more part of the moment,
20:08and I am traveling,
20:09and have an adventure,
20:10on the second part of the moment.
20:12Okay,
20:12so this is an adventure,
20:14but it is also,
20:15mentioned mini globe race.
20:17Absolutely.
20:17Okay.
20:18Yeah.
20:19What I've seen,
20:20is some others,
20:21are more,
20:22mini globe adventure.
20:25And okay,
20:25it's a race,
20:26I have done it,
20:27but it's not,
20:27they are not races.
20:30So,
20:30maybe for them,
20:31without Starlink,
20:32it can be more difficult.
20:33Yeah.
20:33Yeah,
20:34it's an interesting subject,
20:35first time we've done it,
20:36it's,
20:36it's,
20:36I think we'll always,
20:38obviously probably lead a bit,
20:40because it's probably more fun,
20:41with Starlink,
20:41in the little boat,
20:42for all this way around the world,
20:43because we,
20:44you know,
20:45we're,
20:45we're a long way,
20:47from Portugal,
20:48but we're only,
20:49we're not halfway yet,
20:50for the race,
20:51you know,
20:51from Antigua to Antigua,
20:52so still a long way to go,
20:54but anyway,
20:54yeah,
20:55it's always interesting.
20:56For the followers,
20:58Starlink is very good.
20:58It's fantastic,
20:59yeah.
20:59Because you can post things,
21:01and everyone have habit,
21:03at the same moment,
21:04so this is,
21:05this is very good.
21:06but,
21:07yeah,
21:09for me,
21:10it's not part of the race.
21:12Yeah,
21:12absolutely.
21:13For us,
21:14it's an experiment too,
21:15because,
21:15you know,
21:15Jane and I,
21:16the only one is literally,
21:17doing everything,
21:17you know,
21:17running the race,
21:18and so on,
21:18and so,
21:19it's been interesting for us,
21:21because everyone can get their own story out,
21:23whenever they want,
21:23which is actually good,
21:25in many ways.
21:26Yeah.
21:26You know,
21:26it saves us from having to do a lot,
21:28we do our bit in other areas,
21:29but anyway.
21:29Yeah,
21:30I think,
21:31maybe the answer,
21:34for me,
21:34is not having Starlink,
21:36or not Starlink,
21:37or Hedium Go Exec,
21:38or not a Hedium Go Exec,
21:39but having the possibility to be in contact with my boat manager,
21:46and having a very good boat manager,
21:50this is what is the most important,
21:52because the boat manager help you in your mind,
21:58help you if you have any problems,
22:01any questions,
22:02any doubts,
22:03the boat manager is here.
22:04and this is really important to have someone who understands how your head is working.
22:11Yeah.
22:11Yeah.
22:12So, okay,
22:13so,
22:13in terms of the challenge,
22:14you know,
22:15we're talking about it,
22:16sitting here in the blue sky,
22:17and Voodoo Marina in Fiji,
22:18and all the good stuff,
22:21where's the bad stuff?
22:22How many times did you take a deep breath,
22:23and think,
22:24holy dooly,
22:25you know,
22:25will I get through this,
22:26or something,
22:27you know?
22:27or self-doubt as well,
22:29you know,
22:29because I think everyone has self-doubt at times.
22:31You know them,
22:33you know that I am Swiss,
22:34and as lots of them,
22:37and then I'm saying the same,
22:39sometimes I'm a bit too much Swiss,
22:41if you understand what I mean.
22:43So,
22:44when something is written,
22:45I like to follow what it's written,
22:47and I am not able to try to go west,
22:50or east of what it's written.
22:52So,
22:52sometimes I have,
22:53it's hard for me,
22:56okay?
22:56This is,
22:59this is the only moment.
23:01Really,
23:02so on the water,
23:03you're pretty comfortable,
23:04you're faith in the boat.
23:05When I left,
23:06I am 100% comfortable,
23:08yeah.
23:09Yeah.
23:09Until I receive a message from MGR.
23:13Because I never know what will be written on.
23:16Yeah,
23:16yeah,
23:17yeah.
23:17Yeah,
23:18that's fair enough.
23:19Okay,
23:19so,
23:19so,
23:20you try and describe the relationship between you and your boat,
23:24you know,
23:25like you and your 580,
23:26how do you feel,
23:27is it,
23:27is it,
23:28yeah?
23:28I took,
23:29I took to my boat,
23:31lots of parts of the name,
23:33and,
23:34yeah,
23:35I am very close to my boat,
23:37and I think my boat is close to me as well,
23:40and,
23:40yeah,
23:43we have,
23:43we are,
23:45lots of respect together.
23:47Yeah.
23:47Yeah.
23:48Yeah.
23:48So,
23:49how do you feel about the rest of the leg,
23:51you know,
23:51down to Cape Town,
23:52and back up to Antigra again?
23:53So,
23:54before Cape Town,
23:55we have,
23:56we have the Torres Strait,
23:58I don't know if everyone knows what it is,
24:02but this is,
24:02I think the part of the world where you have the more reef by square meter,
24:06and also you can have heavy wind,
24:12heavy trade wind,
24:14so first of all it will be the Bowery Reef,
24:17first challenge.
24:19Second challenge will be Arafura Sea,
24:22can be no wind,
24:24and can be lots of fishermen without light on IAS,
24:29so this is also a problem.
24:32Then we have the Indian Ocean,
24:34everybody knows that the Indian Ocean can be very hard with everyone,
24:40because it's a smaller one,
24:42so the waves are a bit different than the Atlantic and the Pacific.
24:48And then,
24:50this is a big question,
24:52it's not question two,
24:54it's maybe question ten,
24:55how will the 580 able to sail from Durban to Cape Town,
25:04with the Needles current,
25:08and with the waves coming from west and south?
25:12This is a big question,
25:14and I don't have the answer,
25:15we will talk about,
25:16again,
25:17hopefully in Cape Town.
25:18Yes.
25:18Yes.
25:20The Aguilas current,
25:21yep,
25:21and you're right,
25:22the Arafura Sea,
25:23I went through there on Bounty Boat,
25:24and we got laid flat,
25:26one that was masked underwater,
25:27I think two or three times,
25:28in there,
25:29short steep seas,
25:30currents,
25:31and all that stuff,
25:32so,
25:32we've done about,
25:34I think,
25:348,000 miles from Panama,
25:36yeah,
25:37and we have about 10,000 to Cape Town,
25:409,000 something,
25:42nine and a half or something,
25:43so,
25:43it's a bigger leg,
25:44yeah,
25:45it's a longer leg,
25:46and the hardest leg,
25:48because we have,
25:50at least,
25:51yeah,
25:52south of Madagascar,
25:53is also a big,
25:54a big,
25:55big part,
25:56because you have the junction of the current,
25:58yep,
25:58so,
25:59we have four,
26:00four places,
26:00which will be,
26:01serious challenges,
26:02yeah,
26:02yeah,
26:02how would you compare,
26:04you know about the Vendée Globe,
26:06you know about the Golden Globe,
26:08you know,
26:09how would you compare,
26:10how would you describe the comparison between the MGR,
26:12and those two events,
26:13you know,
26:14so for me,
26:14the Vendée Globe,
26:15if you are not,
26:16a top class,
26:19athlete,
26:19sportsman,
26:21or sportwoman,
26:22because there are very nice,
26:23very fantastic sportwomen doing Vendée Globe,
26:25and also an engineer,
26:27you are not able to go to Vendée Globe,
26:30yeah,
26:30golden,
26:33golden globe,
26:34I think,
26:36you must be,
26:37really hard in your head,
26:40because you have no,
26:41communication with anyone,
26:43and I remember that Kirsten,
26:46was just in,
26:48text message,
26:50never more,
26:51she is,
26:52unbelievable,
26:53how she is,
26:55well,
26:57well conditioned,
26:58of her mind,
26:59you know what I mean,
26:59yeah,
27:01so I see,
27:04I think the,
27:05mini global is something completely different,
27:08but,
27:12but is something,
27:13just amazing,
27:14because we are on small boat,
27:15we have a small budget,
27:17you can do everything yourself,
27:20you just need,
27:21maybe,
27:21some advice,
27:22for a few things,
27:23you don't know how to do,
27:24but,
27:24nearly all you can do yourself,
27:26and,
27:27it's pleasant,
27:31still the same fun factor,
27:32yeah,
27:33exactly,
27:33it's a lot of fun,
27:34to be on those small boats,
27:35yeah,
27:36sometimes I sail on my small boat,
27:38it happened in Marqueses,
27:40going to Marqueses,
27:41I was sailing,
27:42oh my gosh,
27:42my small boat,
27:43which is good,
27:4434 days to Marqueses,
27:45fantastic,
27:46and so on,
27:46so,
27:47arrive,
27:47put the boat,
27:48at the mooring,
27:50and I walk,
27:51and the road is a bit higher,
27:52and I was looking,
27:53to my boat,
27:54and I said,
27:55oh,
27:55you are doing this,
27:56on this size of boat,
27:58are you mad,
27:59yes,
28:01yes,
28:01yes,
28:01everyone,
28:02slightly,
28:02man,
28:03I shouldn't be laughing,
28:04but,
28:05yeah,
28:05I know exactly what you mean,
28:06especially when you're in amongst all the other normal boats,
28:08you know,
28:09but,
28:09when you're on the water,
28:11it's a beautiful thing,
28:12it's okay,
28:13it's okay,
28:13yeah,
28:14yeah,
28:14that is true,
28:15okay,
28:16so,
28:16just describe some of your happy moments,
28:18some of the real things that are in your mind,
28:20and say,
28:20wow,
28:21you know,
28:21that was amazing,
28:22or,
28:22you know,
28:23the first one,
28:25who is coming to my souvenir,
28:28is on the last passage,
28:31from Tonga,
28:32to,
28:34Fiji,
28:36at the same moment,
28:38I had the sun going down,
28:40and the moon going up,
28:42the sun was orange,
28:45and the moon was pink,
28:48and the junction on the sky,
28:50which was amazing,
28:51no clouds,
28:53it was,
28:54you know,
28:54and not,
28:55only the color of the atmosphere,
28:57it was just amazing,
28:58this is,
28:59yes,
29:00a strong one,
29:01a strong memory,
29:01a strong one,
29:02a strong one,
29:02yeah,
29:03yeah,
29:03yeah,
29:04okay,
29:05so,
29:05what would you suggest to people that are,
29:08that know they've got the ability to build their boat,
29:10or not the ability,
29:11but they've got the capacity to organize a boat,
29:15and they think they'd like to do the MGL,
29:18you know,
29:18what would you say to them,
29:20and what advice would you give them?
29:21you know,
29:22you know,
29:22so,
29:25for me,
29:26not building the boat,
29:27was the first good decision,
29:32because the time I have not spent to build the boat,
29:35I did spend to test the boat,
29:38and to understand how the boat is working,
29:42and this was really fantastic,
29:45so,
29:45just explain that,
29:46so,
29:46you had Pitor build the hull,
29:48and the deck,
29:49and the keel,
29:49and the rudder,
29:50and things like that,
29:50and then you did the minor fit out at the end,
29:52yeah,
29:54if we can say minor,
29:55it's still a hard job,
29:56yeah,
29:57I received an empty hull,
29:59yeah,
29:59painted,
30:00I received a keel,
30:01we put the keel together,
30:04a rudder,
30:05the stainless steel part,
30:06so,
30:06I had to manage all the equipment on the deck,
30:09the electricity,
30:11the same as me,
30:12same as Trekker,
30:12and,
30:14yeah,
30:15yeah,
30:16yeah,
30:17this,
30:17this did take a long time,
30:19but,
30:21then I had,
30:21I had the winter to do it,
30:23and,
30:23then,
30:24in a bit of the summer,
30:25then I had been able to sail,
30:27yeah,
30:27yeah,
30:28so,
30:28if I can say something to the people who want to do the mini globe race,
30:32or the transat,
30:33for me is about,
30:34yeah,
30:35start as early as possible,
30:39sail as much as possible,
30:42don't sail when the water is calm,
30:44sail when the water is hard,
30:47and the weather hard,
30:48so you will know exactly,
30:51how your boat,
30:53will do an answer,
30:56when you push a bit,
30:57it's,
30:58it's a small boat,
31:00it is a flat keel,
31:03it is a short rudder,
31:06for lots of reason,
31:07so,
31:08it's a bit special sometimes,
31:10to sail with this boat,
31:11yeah,
31:12so,
31:12as much trials you can have,
31:15better you will be,
31:16yeah,
31:17but,
31:17maybe people are just,
31:19for the adventure,
31:20so then,
31:21it's a different way of seeing the things,
31:24yeah,
31:24true,
31:25so what now,
31:26how are you going to hang out,
31:27relax,
31:28what are you going to do,
31:28unwind,
31:29yeah,
31:29relax,
31:30nearly finished,
31:31to prepare the boat,
31:32for next leg,
31:33still have,
31:34four weeks to go,
31:35about,
31:36I don't know,
31:37yeah,
31:37about four weeks,
31:38so I will take time,
31:40visiting,
31:40visiting Fiji,
31:41and,
31:42last week,
31:44I will be here on the 19,
31:46yeah,
31:46to follow all the notice of race,
31:48and meet people,
31:49and,
31:49yeah,
31:51and start to be in my race,
31:53perfect,
31:53I forgot to mention,
31:54that,
31:55I was just doing some statistics,
31:56your average speed,
31:58from Antigua to here,
31:59is about 22.04,
32:00122.04 miles a day,
32:05or something,
32:05I am happy,
32:06it's not 22,
32:07no,
32:07but like,
32:09122 miles a day,
32:10is pretty radical,
32:11for the little boat,
32:12that's all the way,
32:13you know,
32:13like last,
32:14last,
32:14from Antigua,
32:15yeah,
32:16from Antigua to here,
32:17and the average,
32:18average speed,
32:19I think is 5.3 knots,
32:22or something,
32:22yeah,
32:225.2,
32:23if it's 122,
32:24it's pretty impressive,
32:25yeah,
32:25it's good,
32:26and you're still winning,
32:27so,
32:27yeah,
32:28okay,
32:28the boat is,
32:29going,
32:32at his,
32:34average speed,
32:36up,
32:37when you're at 15 knots of wind,
32:39you're at your average speed,
32:40yeah,
32:41after 15 knots,
32:44you must reduce,
32:45reduce,
32:45reduce,
32:46because maybe,
32:47you're a bit faster,
32:48but you go everywhere,
32:51so you have,
32:52a low average speed,
32:53yeah,
32:54too true,
32:55okay,
32:56great to chat,
32:57and,
32:57we'll,
32:58probably do it again,
32:59a short one,
32:59just before the start,
33:01so,
33:02congratulations,
33:03well done,
33:03all that sort of stuff,
33:04thank you,
33:05it's quite cool,
33:06to,
33:06have a chase boat,
33:08and,
33:08hopefully,
33:09there'll be people,
33:10breathing down your neck,
33:11because it's all,
33:12going to start again,
33:12as a group start,
33:13which is a good thing,
33:14this is a good thing,
33:15yeah,
33:16yeah,
33:16it's a,
33:17the pit stops work,
33:18because we can't afford the time,
33:20and the confusion,
33:21to have a mass start,
33:23in every port,
33:23but,
33:24you know,
33:25from our perspective,
33:25I think it works,
33:26whenever you see a boat,
33:27on the water,
33:27you know,
33:28that's their relative position,
33:29you know,
33:30so,
33:30okay,
33:31all good,
33:31all right,
33:32great,
