Conditions were perfect this Sunday 21st June in an attempt to beat the record: 25 knots set with gusts to 35, an almost perfect angle... It took Mathieu Claveau and his friend Olivier just 1h 20min at an average speed of 10.4 knots to set this new reference time on the round trip Tourelle de Canoubier (Marseilles) - Phare du Planier, i.e. 14 nautical miles.
A record not only beaten in 40-foot boats, but also the best time on this monohull course, up until then by 1h47... the Class40 Vintage Class40s still have their say!
