🇫🇷 Le temps est au beau fixe, et les températures grimpent à l'approche de Madère. Le routage lui permet de maintenir une bonne pression de vent. Il profite de cette accalmie relative pour s'atteler aux tâches du jour : réparer quelques petites fuites, régler un souci avec l'hydrogénérateur, et procéder à un grand nettoyage du bateau. 🇬🇧 The weather is beautiful, and temperatures are rising as he approaches Madeira. The routing allows him to maintain good wind pressure. He is taking advantage of this relatively calm moment to tackle the day’s tasks: fixing a few small leaks, addressing an issue with the hydrogenerator, and giving the boat a thorough cleaning. ------------------------ ➡️ SUIVEZ-NOUS ! // FOLLOW US ! 🔗 Website : www.vendeeglobe.org 📸 Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/vendeeglobe/ 🐦 Twitter FR : https://twitter.com/VendeeGlobe | Twitter ENG : https://twitter.com/VendeeGlobeENG 🕺 TikTok : https://www.tiktok.com/@vendee_globe 💻 Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/VendeeGlobe 💼 LinkedIn : https://www.linkedin.com/company/vendée-globe/
At one point, we noticed the anchor light wasn’t working. Apparently, after six years the battery was dead. We were able to buy a spare anchor light, and I went up the mast to replace it. The first time, we thought it would be easy—just replace the light or the battery—but it turned out that more work was needed. The anchor light had to be unscrewed and the two wires had to be reconnected in the terminal block. And all of that at 22 meters up, right on top of the mast. After some instructions from Gilles, I went up the mast again, this time bringing tools along in the side pockets of the “chair” (bosun’s chair) in which you’re hoisted up. It worked, and the anchor light was shining brightly again at the top of the mast!
