Arkéa Ultim Challenge: Charles Caudrelier expected to be the winner in Brest on Friday… or Monday

At the helm of Maxi Edmond de Rothschild, Charles Caudrelier continues his solo journey in the North Atlantic. The skipper was only 1,527 miles from Brest where the arrival point for this Tuesday at midday is located.

Two options are possible for the end of his world tour. Currently south of the Azores archipelago, it could cross the finish line if it manages to get ahead of a large depression expected in the Bay of Biscay. If he decides to delay by taking no risks with his boat, his triumph could be delayed by at least forty-eight hours with a crossing of the line planned for Monday. A decision should be made before Wednesday morning, race management said.
