The date of the Vendée Globe, set for 10 November, is drawing near.

After months of work during which Samantha Davies and her technical team fully reviewed and optimised their boat Savéol - a 60-foot monohull, it has been ready for action at Port La Forêt since 1 September.

The 60 foot boat is now equipped for sailing around the world.

The countdown has started.
