Charles Caudrelier is the skipper of the trimaran ‘Edmond de Rothschild’ He must win the first Ultim round-the-world sailing race this Tuesday morning. He was born in Paris, far from the sea spray.
As a child, he saw himself as a priest, a fencer and then dreamed of being a golfer. He admits to being sick on the first day of racing and is never happier than when the sea is calm with just enough to keep his boat moving.
