Boris Herrmann Gains Ground And Claims Top 3 Ranking in Transat CIC

After overcoming technical challenges, Team Malizia’s skipper is back to full-speed racing in The Transat CIC solo challenge from Lorient to New York. Boris Herrmann has made significant mileage gains in the past two days, and has now grabbed third place in the ranking. With just under 1,300 nautical miles remaining, the Malizia - Seaexplorer skipper is focussing on sailing the best race possible, and keeping an eye on nearby competitors and the two boats not too far ahead of him.
