Trophée Jules Verne - Day 7

After 5 days and 9 hours, Thomas Coville FRA and his team passed the equator yesterday, the first milestone of their record attempt. The crossing of the inner-tropical convergence zone slowed down the pace considerably during 24 hours, but now in the southern trade winds, the maxi-trimaran 'Sodebo' is making good progress again, and had a 73-mile lead this morning UTC. ----- The race tracker with the videos and the daily report.
