The situation is getting clearer for Francis Joyon\u2019s crew, who are about to tackle the Jules Verne Trophy, the outright round the world record. For the moment, the weather hasn\u2019t offered them any opportunities, but it is likely that one will appear\u2026 That is why the IDEC SPORT trimaran left La Trinit\u00e9-sur-Mer on Monday morning to head for Brest.<\/strong><\/p>\n

IDEC SPORT has cast off. The multihull set off for Brest this morning (Monday). That doesn\u2019t mean that Francis Joyon and his international crew (*) will be setting off immediately to tackle the Jules Verne Trophy, but can be explained simply by the fact that taking the big red trimaran from Southern Brittany to the tip of Brittany means they will be closer to the start line, which stretches from Ushant (Le Cr\u00e9ac\u2019h lighthouse) and The Lizard (Cornwall). It is when they cross this line that they will officially have started\u2026 and it is here to they have to return after sailing around the world in practically half the time it took Phil\u00e9as Fogg.<\/p>\n

Francis Joyon, assisted by his Dutch router, Marcel Van Triest, has always said he didn\u2019t want to hang around before setting sail around the world, \u201cbecause if you expect too much of the weather opportunity, you find yourself waiting a long time<\/em>\u2026\u201d Moreover, Francis Joyon has also explained that he prefers to focus on the weather patterns ten days or so ahead, rather than worry about the time it takes to get to the Equator.<\/p>\n

Averaging 20 knots over 26,000 miles \u2026<\/strong>
\nThis does not mean to say that IDEC SPORT will necessarily be setting off in the coming days. Simply that Francis Joyon and his crew want to ensure everything is going for them to enable them to take off as soon as possible.<\/p>\n

The record time they need to beat, currently held by Lo\u00efck Peyron and his crew on Banque Populaire V, is 45 and a half days. To be precise, 45 days, 13 hours, 42 minutes and 53 seconds. We must remember too that the WSSRC (World Speed Sailing Record Council, the body that ratifies sailing records) requires them to do at least one minute better to establish a new record. So the six men on IDEC will have to sail around the world in less than 45 days, 13 hours, 41 minutes and 53 seconds.
\nThat is an impressive number representing an average of 20 knots. The commandos led by Joyon \u2013 six men as opposed to between ten and fourteen on the most recent successful attempts \u2013 have their work cut out. Ahead of them, 26,000 miles (on the theoretical route, meaning much more in reality). But we need to remain patient,a s for the moment, this is just a matter of positioning themselves on the starting blocks.<\/p>\n
