The sailing race in duplicate Med-Max Occitanie-Saïdia continues since the start given on Sunday in Camargue. This sailing race brings together the two continents, starting from the south of France, to arrive at Saidiajewel of the Oriental. Two categories are battling it out: 12.19 meter long monohulls «Class40» and multihulls 15.24 meters long «Ocean Fifty».
On the evening of the third day of racing, the boat crew To the Great Pirelli is in the lead, followed byAmarris and of Centrakor. Two other Italian topguns, Matteo Sericano (Tyrolit) and Andrea Fornaro (Influence II) were watching for the slightest misstep. A little distanced but still in the game, François Verdier (HaPlusPme) et Mathieu Claveau (Take the Sea-Act for the Forest) did much more than just show up.
In the Ocean Fifty, the crews had to face strong winds, downwind, with speeds reaching 31 knots. In this little game, it’s the crew of Koesio who took the advantage. The duo is followed by Viable et Realties. In total, 27 crews are entered in the race, in both categories. The arrival in Saïdia next Sunday promises to be an event in itself and, perhaps, the precursor to increased sporting activity in the region.
