Pierre Denjean on Oufti (36), plan Fauroux 1991 (ed, oldest boat in the race)
What are your goals for this Mini Pavois 2010?
“The thrill of the run of course, but mostly I want to accumulate miles for the Charente-Maritime/Bahia Transat 6.50 2011 that I hope to do on a Pogo 2 if I manage to get sponsored.”
Just a few days to departure, how are you feeling?
“Great, I can’t wait to set sails.”
What are your plans for the next couple of days?
“I still have a number of electronic things to take care of, keeping in mind that I also have to get the supply, do the routing and prepare my race."

Just a few days to departure, how are you feeling?
“Very tired, I didn’t get to sleep more than three or four hours over the last five days.”
What are your plans for the next couple of days?
“Work on my boat, I need to make some changes on things that I’ve noticed during the convoy, I’m going to have to do it myself. And rest, loads of rest.”

“No, I intend to do better.”

Just a few days to departure, how are you feeling?
“As a beginner I’m obviously a bit stressed and worried, but over all I’m really happy to be doing this.”
What are your plans for the next couple of days?
“I’ve arrived from Bayonne (Basque country) just a moment ago, I’m going to check what needs to be checked and look at the weather forecast.”
Xavier Macaire on Masoco Bay (472), Série Pogo 2 Finot 03.

“Cool, that’s it.”
What are your plans for the next couple of days?

Paul Marette on Région Nord Pas de Calais (265), Proto Magnen-Nivelt 99.

What are your goals for this Mini Pavois 2010?

Just a few days to departure, how are you feeling?
“Impatient to pull the sheets.”
