Charles Caudrelier and his boat Edmond de Rothschild will have to wait a little longer before heading back to sea. His team has just announced that due to the big depression currently sweeping the Bay of Biscay, no departure was planned before Friday at the end of the day, or even Saturday noon.
The arrival of the navigator, who has been sheltering in the lee of the island of Faial in Horta (Portugal) since Wednesday morning and who still has a very comfortable lead over Thomas Coville, second on Sodebo (1830 miles this Thursday at 4:00 p.m.), is therefore planned for this Monday, considering that it takes at least 35 hours to reach Brest and the finish line.
