M34 groupama Onboard
La Trinité sur Mer, Brittany , France 47°33'85"N 3°00'73"W
The 2011 Tour de France a la Voile might be lightly populated and it might take us all a long time before we get over our nostalgic love for days of the huge Mumm 30 fleets, but the big guns are ready to play in the new M34 and Christophe Launay was with Frank Cammas and his Groupama’s Sailing Team for some light air training in preparation for the huge Breton gathering at Spi Ouest.
