After leaving Le Havre on Sunday 29th October they crossed the line at 17 10: 3hrs local time this evening to finish 1 day and 22 hours behind race winners Armel Le Clérrrh and Sébastien Joss (Maxi Banque Populaire XI) which finished some five hours ahead of second placed François Gabart and Tom Laperche.
Maxi Edmond de Rothschild’s elapsed time for the course is 16 days 9 hours 5 minutes and 43 seconds.
Their problem with the steering system – in particular the linkage between the rudders – started almost immediately after the breezy start two Sundays ago, as was seen when they suddenly turned unexpectedly up to the wind. But they made a series of repairs which kept them in the race but they also sustained substantial foil damage which meant they could not fully fly, leaving them at 60 to 70 per cent of potential.
Dropping behind the two leaders their painful ascent of the north coast of South America through the Doldrums and very light winds, saw them finally haemorrhaging hundreds of miles, making dozens of slow speed gybes whilst the top two Ultims raced for the finish.
