The flesh of Mr. Séguin. The skipper on Apicil experienced damage in the southern seas, where very strong winds are blowing on the Vendée Globe route. “A chainplate was torn off and led to a leak on board, which is now under control,” wrote the skipper’s team on Saturday, who then embarked on two repair attempts.
The first failed, and Séguin left a few feathers in the process. “Damien got thrown against a chandelier. He had a shock to his neck and ear with slight bleeding and pain in his knee. » The second attempt finally succeeded. Séguin continues his journey and remains in the race while now taking care of his injuries.

Charlie Dalin still in the lead
As of Saturday at 11 a.m., the French skipper is 17th in the Vendée Globe, still led by Charlie Dalin. The leader leads a slightly more peaceful life at the head of the fleet, where nothing and no one seems to be able to disturb him. Damien Séguin would like to be able to say the same.
