Alex Thomson claims 2nd in TJV
November 22, 2011 at 3:57 PM
Alex Thomson and his co-skipper Guillermo Altadill have finished second in the Transat Jacques Vabre Race. This is a race from France to Costa Rica.
Alex and Guillermo had a fantastic race and really pushed hard for first place from the seemingly unstoppable Virbac Paprec 3 (Dick/ Beyou). Both vessels made a brave move to head north during the race. This was a great risk which ultimately paid off. Hugo Boss finished the race in 16 days, 9 hours and 20 minutes!

Congratulations Alex! We are all very proud of you!
