The Edenred Figaro takes part in the Trophée Banque Populaire Grand Ouest
From May 18, the BPGO Trophy welcomes 29 crews on a 735-mile course around the Ponant islands. A loop from Concarneau via the Chausey archipelago and the Isle of Aix. Five nights at sea, the open sea, the pitfalls of coastal stretches between islands (competitors will pass 13 of the 15 Ponant islands): everything is in place for a competitive race.
