Francois Gabart & Philippe Presti will race the 2014 Europeans @Bordeaux
Good news for the Class having Gabart & Presti onboard for the Europeans. Gabart, ex Tornado sailor, has won the Vendee Globe last year and has participated at the 2013 F18 Worlds where he finished 4th overall.
He has been sailing the Flying Phantom lately thus getting flight hours. Now is training for the Europeans on the new Dominik Scheurer's/D3 A-Cat. Photo left with Askell built mast.
Philippe Presti is already registered too, the former Finn Olympic sailor and sailing coach for Oracle Team USA has also sailed the Flying Phantom and both will be racing at Bordeaux.
