Jean Le Cam, my Vendée Globe
After playing the Saint Bernard of the Seas four years ago by saving Kevin Escoffier, whose boat had broken in two, Jean Le Cam, 65, set off to circle the planet again. For his sixth Vendée Globe, the man nicknamed King Jean had a new boat built without foils but with straight daggerboards.
