Trofeo Jules Verne, Francis Joyon frantuma il record di giro del mondo a vela

E’ l’anno dei francesi. Dopo la vittoria di Armel Le Cleac’h alla Vendee Globe, ora รจ la volta di Francis Joyon cheย in 40 giorni, 23 ore, 30 minuti e 30 secondi, tenendo una media di 26,85 nodi ha infranto il precedente record del giro del mondo a vela in equipaggio senza scalo e senza assistenza. Joyon ha cos’ strappato il trofeo Jules Verne a Loick Peyron che nel 2012 aveva impiegato piรน di 45 giorni a compiere le 21.600 miglia necessarie a circumnavigare il globo.

Una distanza del tutto teorica, visto che l’equipaggio guidato da Joyon, nella realtร  ha dovuto navigare 5 mila miglia in piรน fra virate e strambate seguendo una tattica di regata che l’ha condotto alla vittoria.

Velocitร  folli, quelle tenute dal trimarano Idec Sport, che per 40 giorni hanno tenutoย Sรฉbastien Audigane, Clรฉment Surtel, Gwรฉnolรฉ Gahinet, Alex Pella e Bernard Stamm, insieme al loro skipper, in una dimensione irreale, fatta di adrenalina e concentrazione costanti. Perchรจ se รจ vero che molto di questo risultatolo ย si deve alla “macchina”, un trimarano in fibra di carbonio e Nomex in grado di sviluppare velocitร  superiori a quelle del vento, รจ anche vero che senza il coraggio, la forza e la capacitร  di concentrazione prolungata nelle settimane di questi uomini, nulla avrebbe potuto spingere una barca eccezionale a quelle velocitร  stratosferiche.

La barca, un trimarano di 31,5 metri per 22,50 di larghezza , ex Groupama 3 e in seguito battezzato Banque Populaire VII al comando dello stesso Loick Peyron e Armel Cleac’h, pesa solo 18 mila chili. Progettata daย Marc Van Pรฉteghem e Vincent Lauriot-Prรฉvost, รจ stata varata 10 anni fa. Da allora si รจ aggiudicata le ultime due edizioni della Route du Rhum e lo stesso Jules Verne nel 2010.

Do you need to sell your boat? You are in the right place! yachtdigest.com is in fact the largest online portal on recreational boating and in this section you will be able to write your ad for free if you want to sell your boat. Adding a new sales message is very simple and intuitive as is finding a boat you are interested in buying, but to make your listing even more appealing, we want to give you some general but important pointers that you can follow if you wish.

First of all, try to personalize your ad, describing the history of the boat and perhaps the reason why you are selling it, this way you will gain more trust from the reader.

You can call it “half-new” if it is almost new, or “used” by specifying whether or not it is in good condition. It indicates the condition of the engines, the year of registration, how many owners it has had-most importantly, it indicates whether the boat has been owned by a single owner: it increases interest to those reading the ad.

The goodness of your craft must shine through in your message, because before you can convince someone, you yourself must be convinced that the product is good.

It is important that no spelling errors are made in the advertisement, so reread the message well before putting it online. The language then must be clear and simple, understandable to all.

It serves to attract interest and induce the reader to continue reading; it is the most important part and should summarize in one line the whole message we want to give. Unfortunately, you don’t have much chance to stand out much except with something really original to attract attention. So focus on truly original details of the boat, its real qualities: in the yachtdigest.com portal this brief summary will appear by hovering over the picture of the boat with the mouse.

It is important to clearly include the general record of the vessel. Always enter: shipyard, model, length, width, draft, engines, number of cabins, year of construction, price.

In the boat sheet accurately enter all boat details, standard and extra equipment. It is useful to communicate many details and details for those who are really interested and will continue reading beyond the first few lines.

Suggest to the reader who wants to buy the best features of your craft, and do not indicate-unless it is necessary to inform the buyer in advance-information that might negatively influence the reader.

Always indicate the price. Unless you absolutely do not want to deal, we recommend adding the words “price negotiable” which gives an incentive for the buyer to contact you.
