This Monday morning, Team Malizia’s skipper Boris Herrmann reached yet another milestone in the Vendée Globe 2024-2025. Currently racing in 7th place against 35 remaining competitors, he passed near Point Nemo, the place furthest from any land. The German solo sailor celebrated this key passage at 06:43 UTC after approximately 42 days, 18 hours, and 36 minutes at sea.
