Hi all!
"On November 9th 2008, at 13 h 02 French time (11 h 02 UT) 30 navigators
will set sails aboard their 60'monohulls, heading towards the three
great capes, marking the southern tips of the African continent,
Australia and America. The Vendée Globe will start, for the 6th time,
from the harbour of Les Sables d’Olonne, where it was born. And as far
as the rest of the story is concerned… well, it’s up to the sailors
themselves now."
