Vendée Globe Day 74: Seven days to destiny

The race at the front of the Vendée Globe is electrifying. None of the eight previous editions has ever witnessed a race finish as open and intense. Right now the leading skippers are trying to get their heads around a do-or-die sprint to the finish line in Les Sables d Olonne which has now less than one week to run.
Even the most informed of France s pre-race race prognosticators did not project a podium finish for the maverick 35 year old from Saint Malo Louis Burton, but most avid race watchers now see the skipper of Bureau Vallée as having a small lead as he is furthest north and faster than his nearest rivals. ....

Vendée Globe Day 74 morning update: Charlie Dalin 'I need to be in good shape for this last bit'

The leader is not overly worried. He expects to reconnect with Louis Burton - who is to leeward and working NW - as they reach the south of the Azores. But the final stage seems more complex in a SW ly wind which needs to be utilised at the best angles.
The night is beautiful, breezy and starry. Thetrade winds are a little stronger and so and I am taking advantage of that because as of this afternoon I will be coming back under the influence of the high pressure and the wind will start to drop. It s my last night in the trade winds. I had a fair amount of wind, up to 25 knots which allowed me to make good progress all night because the sea state is not too bad. From where I m watching, I have a porthole above me and I can see the stars, like when I was little on my bedroom ceiling! It is very beautiful. I can enjoy my sweet dreams. ....

Vendée Globe Day 72: Climbing home to a final battle

With less than two weeks - perhaps even just ten days - until the finish of what is set to be the closest ever edition of the Vendée Globe it is still impossible to predict which three skippers will finish on the podium.
To be honest we wont really have a decent idea until the first ones get to the entrance to the Bay of Biscay at La Coruña, warned Jacques Caraës, Race Director this morning. Race veteran Jean Le Cam (Yes We Cam!), 61, in ninth place on his fifth Vendée Globe observed sagely, I don t make forecasts. We are always being asked to predict what we can t predict. This story does not end until the finish line. ....

Vendée Globe Day 73 morning update: Fast and low or high and slower?

After more than 25,000 miles of racing this Vendée Globe hangs in the balance. Who will win? At the head of the fleet now Charlie Dalin (Apivia) has been in first place 178 times since November 8th when the race started, Louis Burton (Bureau Vallée 2) has been in first twice, and one of those times was on start day after he jumped the start gun!
Dalin is racing harder on the wind, on a tighter angle as his port side foil is compromised but trying to be closer to the Azores, to the east, when he hooks into the low pressure which will accelerate him to the finish. Burton has the bow of Bureau Vallée down, powering on a more westerly slant at 17kts trying to go faster to reach the low earlier but more to the west. This climb up the NE ly trades blowing at 16-18kts will take another three days. ....
