Letter of Congratulations


Dear Bruno,

You have perfected the Round the World.

Before your first record in 1993, the best time was 109 days by Titouan Lamazou. Now on your third you have brought the record down to less than one half that time.

Although I am sad to see my record broken after only one year, I still have the satisfaction of being part of the progressive history of this Round the World Record. Your new record is likely to last, and certainly you have made a special mark on sailing history by breaking the Round the World three times.

You and your crew have sailed extraordinarily well. I am happy for you.

Kind regards,

Steve Fosset
