Vendée Globe 2024
Fabrice Amedeo focuses on sailing and environmental protection
On November 10, 2024, the time has come again: the Vendée Globe, the legendary single-handed, non-stop sailing race around the world, starts from Les Sables-d'Olonne in France. Experienced French skipper Fabrice Amedeo will be taking part in this adventure for the third time - and this year he will be demonstrating far more than just his sailing skills.
Marinepool has been accompanying Fabrice Amedeo to regattas and events around the world for over ten years. This year, he is on a special mission: in addition to the sporting competition, the focus is on environmental protection. His boat, the “Nexans-Wewise”, is equipped with a variety of scientific instruments that collect comprehensive data on the health of the oceans during the race. Sensors measure the CO₂ content, temperature and salinity of the water, while microplastic detectors and DNA analyzers collect valuable information on the biodiversity of the oceans.
