Bucking his preference for being in the thick of the action, Christophe Launay finally gets up in a chopper like the lazy photogs and shows why his is one of the very best. This shot from the incredible nearly 500 boat fleet at the Tour De Belle-Ile. The 77-foot maxi tri Gitana 11 broke the record in 2 hours and 42 minutes with Seb Josse at the helm, but nearly was overtaken at the end by Lionel Lemanchois on the super-fast Irens Multi 50 trimaran Prince De Bretagne.
