ABOUT THE COURSE
1840 nautical miles between Rouen (Seine-Maritime) and La Turballe (Loire-Atlantique), via Gijón (Spain) and Royan (Charente-Maritime). A committed course with a stopover abroad, offering a varied playground for the Figaro racers.
"It's a very attractive course, true to the DNA of the Solitaire du Figaro Paprec, made up of three major legs of around 600 miles each, which will alternate between inshore and offshore sailing. It will offer varied conditions to the competitors and allow them to explore different playgrounds".
Yann Chateau, Race Director.
"The Race Directors have once again concocted a very fine course for us this year, with three long legs on very open routes, which will require the competitors to make strategic choices and allow them to exercise their skills as navigators and meteorologists! The Solitaire du Figaro Paprec promises sailors and fans alike a thrilling race full of twists and turns".
Sébastien Petithuguenin, Managing Director of the Paprec Group.
