We relive the story of the final few miles leading to Brest and the precious moments of this victorious arrival after such an epic voyage around the world, punctuated by an emotional Charles Caudrelier surrounded by his nearest and dearest, combined with the beaming smiles of the members of Gitana, who finally got a chance to express their delight. Naturally, the final chapter of Flying Offshore also shines a spotlight on the incredible machine that is the Maxi Edmond de Rothschild. It is a fitting tribute to the first maxi-trimaran for offshore racing, designed to fly in the open ocean, a pioneer of her generation. Indeed, in 2017, Gitana 17 was a veritable trailblazer and with this historic victory she has definitively rewritten the history books. Through her victories as well as her failures, we look back at the giant’s genesis and her raison d’être: her first flights, her first victories and also the commitment and passion of an entire collective lending credibility to the Maxi Edmond de Rothschild.
