The greatest on water challenge – a taste of things to come! The Vendée Globe is the only sailing race round the world that’s solo, non-stop, and without assistance, and it is all systems go for the 9th edition on November 8, 2020. Beginning in 1989 with 13 entries, the start line on November 8th has 33 skippers set to take off from Les Sables d’Olonne, France. Fasten your seat belts for this ride with Sam Davies on the IMOCA Initiatives-Coeur while training for the 2020-21 Vendee Globe.
