The road remains long to the Antilles, but the skipper stays the course, carried by the enthusiasm of this race start. The continuation promises to be rich in twists and turns, between the trade winds and the traps of the Atlantic, for she who is discovering the Route du Rhum from a decidedly positive angle.
