Highs, Lows & Lentils - Day 17 - Vendée Globe

On day 17 of the Vendée Globe Boris Herrmann is adapting to changing conditions aboard Malizia-Seaexplorer. After a period of fast sailing, the winds are easing, with average boat speeds now dropping below 20 knots. Boris share his congratulations for the leaders, as they clock in more record breaking days, and reflects on his "race within a race". Despite the grey skies and slower speeds, Boris keeps morale high, sharing highlights like a lively Q&A with nearly 1,500 German schoolchildren, and a video call with friends at Yacht Club de Monaco. Plus, he gives us a peek into life on board, from fine-tuning the sails to protect them from damage, to enjoying a satisfying lentil and Haribo lunch. Tell us below what has been the highlight of your day?
