D-2 to the Transat Jacques Vabre 2023 - Ready to Race Across the Atlantic
Boris Herrmann and Will Harris are about to embark on Malizia - Seaexplorer and race in the Transat Jacques Vabre Normandie Le Havre 2023. The Team Malizia duo is competing for the second time in the challenging transatlantic race, which will see them confront the new boats of the IMOCA fleet for the first time. As they race from northern France to Martinique, the pair will deploy scientific instruments and collect valuable Ocean data to further climate research.
