Kito De Pavant and Groupe Bel Withdraw from the Artemis Transat
The skipper of the monohull bearing the effigy of the famous Vache qui rit (Laughing Cow) has been injured during a preparatory sail. A fracture of the fibula (left leg) will immobilize him for at least five weeks. He is therefore obliged to abandon his participation in the first race of the season, The Artemis Transat, leaving from Plymouth in a month, and to adapt his programme. But this will not change anything with regards to the major objective of the season: the preparation for the Vendee Globe.
