You're not only watching Charlie Dalin win the Vendée Globe, but break the race record by NINE days. Charlie Dalin had been there but never done that. In the 2020-2021 edition of the Vendee Globe race, he had been first up this channel. But he officially finished second after Yannick Bestaven was awarded time credit for coming to another sailor's aid and achieved a well-deserved victory. Today it is Charlie's day. There is nothing anywhere in sailing like the day the first finisher crosses the line in Les Sables d'Olonne. Harken was there, At The Front?where we must be. There will be time for analysis of the race and full examination of the Harken equipment aboard each boat after a lap of the planet. But for today, it's just Bravo Charlie!!! #vendéeglobe #AtTheFront

You can now find new Zircon models in 29mm sheaves and triple sheave versions of the 40mm and 57mm. New sizes make Zircon appropriate for control lines in multi-part purchases. And they react immediately. So, when the pressure gets light, and sailors want to ease that 24:1 cunningham they've rigged under the deck, it will move. Since the first tests, Zircon blocks have overcome inertia so easily, trimmers have reacted in fractions of time and sheet-creating better-matched sail shapes that increase boat speed. The update here is that now, they're great for more than sheets. Learn more about the 29mm Zircons ? https://bit.ly/Zircon29mm
