Vendée Globe Finish - Charlie Dalin Breaks the Race Record

Coming to you from the front row in Les Sables d'Olonne, where the energy spiked as Vendée Globe winner Charlie Dalin was welcomed by a huge crowd, celebrating his win. Charlie had been there but never done that. In the 2020-2021 edition of the Vendee Globe race, he had been first up this channel. But he officially finished second after Yannick Bestaven was awarded time credit for coming to another sailor’s aid and achieved a well-deserved victory. Today it is Charlie’s day. There is nothing anywhere in sailing like the day the first finisher crosses the line in Les Sables d’Olonne. Harken was there, At The Front…where we must be. There will be time for analysis of the race and full examination of the Harken equipment aboard each boat after a lap of the planet. But for today, it’s just Bravo Charlie!!! #vendéeglobe #AtTheFront
