The French Sail FAST | Sailing in the Mini Transat Race and Amel Factory Tour [Panda Journey #67]

In this episode, we get a tour of a Pogo 36. For those who aren't familiar, watch this separate boat tour video here: https://youtu.be/QAfHNSBjqu0 We also sail south and intercept the start of a Mini Transat Race. These boats are small, at only 6.5m / 21 ft long, but go super quick, surfing downwind at speeds up to 20kts. If you don't already, go find @TheSailingFrenchman who is a youtube star, now racing hard and fast at the front of the Mini field. And last in this episode, we get to see where our dear Panda Boat was born, the Amel Factory! Its a brief tour, but for those who want to see a more in-depth and fantastic exploration of all-things amel, head on over to @svdelos where they do an exceptional tour: https://youtu.be/W3-mh0rwrmw ?BINGE Watch our Journey? https://youtu.be/w58uZsntFa0 ?UPDATES on the Socials?
