I saw that earlier, shame he's stepping down. I don't think that there's anyone in the UK running an IMOCA campaign now, unfortunately.

that’s clear Graeme. But the way in which he was forced to leave the last Vendée, touched him for sure. Damaged his famous engagements for this race a little perhaps…
It’ s really crazy the love, the fascination, the time, all that he gave for the Vendée, and the little that this race  gave him back... Tough…Very!

Alex and his brother David, are racing in Antigua this week.  What a great shot of David….

Awesome shot!

Alex and David (and the rest of the crew) have just won their class in the Caribbean 600 - What an amazing pic. I think Alex was giving it max.....

Wow, fantastic, I think he needs to celebrate once home by using the IH voucher his wife bought him for Christmas!

Awesome racing pic!

Can’t believe that nearly four years waiting are over in 120 days. Next Vendée Globe starts 11.10.2024.
What is Alex doing @Giles ?
