Slamming Hard, Storm Jib on Standby - Day 54 - Vendée Globe
Day 54 of the Vendée Globe brings relentless challenges as Boris Herrmann battles tough conditions since leaving the Falklands. Sailing upwind in a building sea state, the journey has been anything but pleasant. The boat slams hard against the waves, raising concerns about its integrity and testing the endurance of both skipper and vessel. With each passing day, the relentless nature of this leg feels never-ending, but Boris stays focused, determined to push through and reach calmer waters ahead.
