After winning the Porquerolle's race in mid-May, another victory for Centrakor, this time in Saint-Tropez on the Paprec 600.
There were 8 Class40s at the start of this double-handed race on a course designed between Corsica, the island of Giannutri and the island of Elba.
On the night of May 24, 2024, at 2:08 am, the Class40 Centrakor crossed the finish line in first place after 3 days 14 hours and 8 minutes of racing.
The duo on Sharp Ha Plus pme (F. verdier / PL Garnero) took second place, crossing the line just 13 minutes later. Glaces Romanes - Guérir en mer (K. de Pavant / Buissart) completed the podium, less than a minute behind.
Mikael Mergui : "It was a magnificent race with an incredible course, but nervously exhausting. I really think it was a race of the mind, four days of emotional elevators with very surprising weather! I'm not going to lie to you, it's a superb victory. And you come out of this race: cooked and roasted to perfection..."
The Hyèrois is now in the lead of the Mediterranean 2024 Trophy. See you at the end of June at the Massillia Cup Offshore - Barcelona Trophy for the rest of the competition.
