In the previous episode, Hugo had finished 10 e of the 2 e stage of Les Sables - the Azores in the Bay of Morlaix, between a regatta between Les Sables and Roscoff. Only 10 minutes from the 9 e and 1:30 a.m. on the 5th e So nothing is decided for the general classification, which will be based on the finish times of the 3 stages of the race.
Before you leave for that 3 e stage between Roscoff and Les Sables-d'Olonne, the boat must first be prepared: seamanship, cleaning of the hull in icy water, installation of a bulwark, etc.
After quite a few mistakes at the start, Hugo now has to manage the exit from the Bay of Morlaix, where the navigation is more like a rodeo. Indeed, if the wind only blows at 12 knots, the waves break, with waves up to 4 m high.
Finally, as we headed out to sea, the sea calmed down and we set off for 24 hours of battling against the wind and the current, tacking as far as the waypoint, before finally taking the return route towards Les Sables-d'Olonne, accompanied by playful dolphins.
