Reactions from François Jambou-Navigateur-Course au large, first boat to the sailor!
"I am very moved and I have trouble realizing. I made a lot of sacrifices that make sense today with this victory. My whole life has been turned around this, to be able to get there. I haven't had a salary in a year and a half because I stopped working. Lately I haven't been very present for my 3 year old son. My companion has been behind me, I thank her because without her I could never have done that. This victory will change my life, there will be a before and after. " "
"I was in a mode where you shouldn't break the boat, I had my feet on the brake at first, maybe the others wanted to go too fast from the start and broke. I was really in medium speed mode, there were plenty of moments when I could have shot more on the boat but as soon as it hit, as soon as there was a strange noise in the boat I was a little bit, while watching the Ranking. I didn't feel like doing the crazy because it's not in my nature. At The GPS when you see that there are 1 miles left to go, we don't want to do them under fortune rig. We are sailors before being of. " "

"We had fun conditions, always at the door. I put a spi at the start and I was just there, I DID ONLY 1 thousand close. It was a great navigation. The boat was high all the time. There were beautiful landscapes, of suns, we couldn't dream better. Mentally it was harder, I had a hard time managing the stress of the competition. It's quite an experience, I feel like I've made a lot of progress, to have understood a lot of things and that's rewarding too. I didn't have the claim to be able to win because there were great sailors, great boats and on the first stage I missed a little success at the end. " "
"You had to get into the game from the start, which was not obvious because we were picked directly with strong wind. I was just behind Marie Gendron when she broke, I saw others leave. It still takes a bit of success because the bullshit hangs on us all: the object we're going to hit, the wind swing that is not announced. A lot of trouble, it can happen to everyone. " "
" The mini-Transat is the race of my life. I've never dreamed of making the route du rhum or the vendée globe. I came to sail on the late, around 16 years old. For me the mini-Transat was Mr. Everyone's race and I thought I had access to it one day. Winning this race is amazing! " "
"There is a sailor who impressed me, it's ambrogio. I think he's the best sailor I've ever seen. He's impressive. Getting drunk with standard boats as if they were the best protos, it was a major fact of the race. I completely hallucinated. Necessarily when the wind has a little molli, with my boat more powerful, lighter, I got away, but nevertheless there's a hell of a level in mini and it's good for the class, it's good for sport. " "
