Jean Le Cam, at 65 the oldest and most experienced skipper among the 39 solo racers still competing, leads the Vendée Globe singlehanded non-stop race around the world as the tenth edition completes its first week at sea tomorrow Sunday.
The six times Vendée Globe starter seems to have benefited from radical easterly option which is allowing him to get south more directly and quicker than his rivals. Racing the newest boat in the fleet, a non-foiling David Raison design which has modern daggerboards rather than foils, Le Cam took the lead yesterday night, but this evening his option sees him in very light winds making less than five knots.
