💫 Catherine Chabaud, première femme française à avoir bouclé un tour du monde à la voile en solitaire, sans escale et en course, lors du Vendée Globe 1996-1997. ⛈️ Lors de ce fameux Vendée Globe, alors qu’elle affronte les mers du Sud seule à bord de son monocoque “Whirlpool-Europe 2”, elle traverse une tempête d’une violence inouïe. Les vagues sont si hautes qu’elle ne voit plus l’horizon. Elle raconte qu’à un moment, elle s’est surprise à parler à haute voix à son bateau comme à une personne : 🐋 « Je lui disais : Tiens bon, mon grand. Allez, on y va tous les deux, on sort de là ensemble. » 👍🏽 Ce moment d’intimité entre la navigatrice et son voilier illustre magnifiquement la relation fusionnelle que peuvent entretenir les marins avec leur embarcation, surtout dans les situations extrêmes. Elle expliquera plus tard qu’elle n’a jamais vraiment eu peur à ce moment-là, parce qu’elle avait confiance en son bateau, et que c’est cette confiance réciproque qui l’a portée jusqu’au bout. #Voile #VendéeGlobe #CatherineChabaud #aventureenmer #navigation #femmesfortes #JoyEnMer
A weather window presents itself with light breezes and sunny skies, so we take our friends sailing on a beautiful day out on the water. It turns out to be the perfect day for an adventure. We are greeted by lots of sun, fun, and fishing, making it a memorable experience for all of us. The gentle wind fills the sails as we glide across the waves, enjoying the warmth of the sun on our faces and the laughter of our friends around us. This one could be lived again and again, as we create lasting memories together, surrounded by the beauty of nature and the joy of friendship. Whether it’s casting a line into the sparkling water or simply soaking up the sun, every moment is filled with happiness and excitement. Join us as we explore the great outdoors and relish the simple pleasures of a perfect day at sea!
** Infinity Expedition lands in Auckland after 2 weeks offshore*** What a view! - Watch in Full HD We had a tranquil passage from Vanuatu, with light but consistent winds. Land ahoy was the word when we first spotted land, what a feeling! Arrival was in the first hours of the morning, sun raising behind us, and on the distance the skyscrapers. Quite a shock for most of the crew, after months in the tropical South Pacific. Auckland is our home for the next few weeks, while we get ready for our next Journey - Antarctica! Everyone's been hard at work, and a mixture of stoke and apprehension rules. We will be posting a few videos the next couple of weeks, Pirate Hugs Infinity Crew
