For her first transatlantic race aboard 2025 launched new IMOCA Association Petits Princes – Queguiner, Élodie Bonafous had a bit more of an adventure than the 30 year old from Concarneau had maybe expected . Behind their battle to make the top 10 – which they did, finishing eighth there was the further strengthening of a really great partnership with Yann Eliès, a breakdown, 36 hours at the helm while her co-skipper was bunk bound with an injured back, and even a visit to a supermarket in the Canary Islands. Here is what they shared on the docks, a glass of rum in hand.
