“I am extremely happy with the copy returned”

A little over an hour after crossing the line in second position this Wednesday morning off the coast of Les Sables-d'Olonne, Yoann Richomme joined the official Vendée Globe pontoon in Port Olona. The skipper of Paprec-Arkéa was celebrated and welcomed by his entire team, by his loved ones and by Charlie Dalin, the winner of this 10th edition. Many emotions ran through the voice of the sailor, who had just completed his first solo round-the-world race, at the age of 41. He recounted his adventure, his battle with Charlie Dalin, his pride.
