Charlie Dalin, renowned for his record-breaking performance in the Vendee Globe, is now setting his sights on defending his IMOCA Globe Series title. Leveraging his methodical precision, Dalin enters the 2025 season aboard MACIF Sante Prevoyance with a clear focus on winning races once again.
The 40-year-old skipper will commence his campaign in the 2,000-mile Course des Caps in June, emphasizing the Transat Cafe L'Or from Le Havre to Martinique in October.
