The Hardest Race? - OnCourse - Episode 7

Winning the Solitaire du Figaro is harder than a victory in the Vendee Globe, the non stop single-handed race around the world, accoring to Michel Desjoyeaux. This French celebrity sailor is the only person to have won the Vendee Globe twice so he should know. In a special and exclusive feature we report on this year's Figaro while also heading to the heart of the action at last year's 50th anniversary to talk to some of the world's greatest offshore sailors, all of whom had turned up for another taste of the toughest single handed offshore series in the world. Plus, we check in with the America's Cup as the new, radical AC75s boats arrive in Auckland ahead of the first race on 17 Dec. And there's more, as Docktalk takes a look at green resins, blue water and a very cool maxi cruising cat.
