    Yes, the Pirates boat was mechanically unsound, which almost led to it sinking. However, the inexperience of the crew with the boat was evident in the Capetown in-port race.

  • @Blackcatholman Due to problems with the kanting keel.

  • En espérant que les marins Français de la VOR auront le même succcés que ceux "en solitaire" !!!

    Go ahead Groupama!!!!

  • Looks a fast boat . Wonder if the French will dominate as they do in multihull and short handed racing. I suppose it is a slightly different game.

  • French guys just don't know how to pick a soundtrack... this is VOR! Put some Rock or Metal, not stupid synthesizers! The video looks good, just need real men's music!

  • Getting to know each other as well as the boat is essential to being competitive in the Volvo. Pirates of the Caribbean had only one day on the water before the start of the 2005-2006 race, and had to abort the first leg.

  • C'est tellement génial d'avoir un équipage français compétitif dans une course si internationale.... GO Groupama GO !!!!!
