Sobedo is Loaded
Sodebo the 60′ trimaran skippered by Thomas Coville will carry a crew loaded with talent and notoriety in the Quebec St Malo Transat.
Martial Salvan is a regular on the boat typically sailing as pitman. Stefan Fodor serves as a winch griner.
The three other crew Jacques Vincent, Loick Peyron and Cam Lewis have lengthy careers. Vincent has sailed around the world 7 times, most recently on the record setting Cheyenne. Peyron dominated the 60′ trimaran circuit sailing Fuji Color. In 1996 Peyron was this race’s winning skipper and finished 2nd in 1988.
Cam Lewis who skippered Team Adventure in The Race and was part of the original Jules Verne crew-along with Vincent- also will be on board. Lewis is also a skilled writer famous for his Cam Grams sent while at sea.
Sobedo was 2nd in the Transat to Geant. Perhaps Coville’s pedigreed crew can move the result to 1st.
