7:36 - you look like a drug dealer crossing the channel on a power boat !! 😂😂 Now seriously, I have been watching your videos for so long now that I could almost say that you have inspired me to buy an old sailboat, restore it and now I am sailing as well. Thanks for the great Stories and inspiration for going above and beyond ! Regards from Germany
I received your photographs signed from the middle of the Ocean, thank you ! I will decorate my "Ecume de mer" with these. Nice video and great musics ! Fair winds !
Como sois los regatistas oceánicos Hugo, con 4 nudos de viento avanzar a 3 nudos y te quejas... ya casi no recuerdas tu velerito bicolor del Caribe... 😜 Ya me gustaría que mi barco fuese capaz de navegar a esas velocidades. Enhorabuena por el vídeo
Ahhhh Hugo, you’re killing me, James Kell just sent me an invite to go sailing with “the Sailing Frenchman,” this summer off Brittany, oh man that would be soooooo much fun, hope you get lots of young customers! I’m too old for you kids but it sounds like an absolute blast, cheers!
This is why the route via Cape Verde is more pleasant - the average wind is higher the closer you get to 10°N. I went as far as 11°50" on my crossing. Though I wasn't racing. I'd still rather more distance but more wind.
Salut Hugo, il faut de tout pour faire un monde, des pétoles comme du bon vent et même parfois du vent très fort. Il faut profiter du moment présent, comme tu le fais et surtout garder le moral, c'est tout de même pas mal de pouvoir surfer sur les vagues au milieu de l'Atlantique et ensuite de pouvoir bronzer au soleil en attendant le vent. Merci pour ces superbes images et de nous faire vivre ta mini. Marc
Thanks for taking us along! You‘re transmitting a really good feeling of everydays life on your Maxi. If it was‘nt for the podium it would be just relaxing…
I followed you during the whole race and it was clear that something was amiss in this 2nd leg. Since you were with a group of boats, I figured you were ok, but something with your route wasn’t playing out. Thanks for shedding light on your race, that’s really interesting for all of us following your channel! Looking forward to the next episodes 😎
Hugo, je suis au Mexique sur la côte Ouest au nord de Puerto Vallarta. Je recherche les fréquences radio pour la réception des bulletins météo marine. J’ai un vieux SANGEAN mais aucune connexion pour la réception des Fax météo.
Thanks for the vídeo. I don’t know if you have it already, but I’d like to see better how the weather forecast is received and plot on that “white chart”. Also what does it mean “it’s a race without assistance”, what electronic devices you have on board to communicate and locate yourself. Thanks a lot.
Awesome to see you crossing the pond again. I wanted to know, what is that Blue thing you wear round your neck? Is that a remote control? What make or brand?
NKE system hooked to a Raymarine pushrod (ram), it is located below deck, check this video for more info on that: ua-cam.com/video/Hk0G13ptKYk/v-deo.html
Not sure if you are comfortable to talk about it, but I would be interested to know how all of this works with finances. Do you get paid or only if you are one of the first to arrive or win or how do you finance your life? Thank you very much for your videos.

Bravo Hugo, tu continues à nous régaler avec tes vidéos. Merci et bon vent ⛵️

Jaja, vale vale, tienes razon, nos quejamos demasiado :)
finally happy again Hugo, I have missed you very much, you are a light in these dark days. All the best to our hero and may the winds carry you.
You're a star sailor...the real deal...'love how the mini sails...Highest Blessings
😊 thank you

I can see your words in this Video, nice Race = happy Hugo :D
Always a pleasure, Hugo. Thanks for sharing!
Great post my friend. A day in the real life world of a mini transat. 🌞🌴⛵
Great job even in the frustrating light winds... Keep it up and sail well !!!

Brutal. You have such a good attitude.
Thanks for the ride along Hugo was fun
thank you!
Awesome ! I love that rock'n roll part between the calms... Thanks for sharing this kind of adventure from the inside !
Love it mate! Great to see this and fun to watch in preparation for my Mini Races
Really nice storytelling/filmmaking. Your les et faire-ness is ideal, long ranger. : )
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you so much for this video. Just provides so much insight into the mentality aspect of this amazing race. Thank you !
I love how that mini flies over the water and makes 15 knots look like 20 knots Cheers

beautiful!
Nice video, i appreciate this channel and the effort you put into everything....life is what you make of it.
Glad you enjoy it!
What is the make of the boat. Thanks so much. I love these videos.
nice sail ..... fair winds west ........ Cheers from Muros.
Coolest boat on the blue planet!
Looking forward to the final installment next week.
Nice relaxing report. Thx. And fair winds for the remainder.
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching
Oh the wind teased you. 20kts, great surf, and then lull. You did well to keep morale but it must have been difficult.
Merci pour ce partage. Impatient de voir la suite. @+
Great videos!
Great vid, as usual!
Great stuff
Beautiful video 👏👏👏
Thank you very much

Would appreciate a music/artist list in the Comments. You always have great choices! Thanks for what you do.
Another video already, that was quick
I know right?
Diving into editing atm :)
What's the hardrock music you're playing on the downwind surf? Shazam doesn't recognize it :-)
Great trip and coverage. I would like to know more about that rope repair?
Coming soon!
Why do you want the weight up forward when speeds are slow?
To reduce drag by making the hull as horizontal as possible
@@TheSailingFrenchman thanks
Merci Hugo. Belle musique, un peu triste toutefois...
Loved the music choice. Can you list the songs so I can search for the up beat one?
Thanks for the vídeo. I don’t know if you have it already, but I’d like to see better how the weather forecast is received and plot on that “white chart”. Also what does it mean “it’s a race without assistance”, what electronic devices you have on board to communicate and locate yourself. Thanks a lot.
Good question, long to answer, adding it to a Q&A I'll do soon, stay posted
Thanks! Like heaps! Any footage of the accommodation down below?
Not in that video, but maybe you can check that one: ua-cam.com/video/8NEFMdEERFU/v-deo.html
id love to know more about how you generate your own graphical charts from the wx report.
Good question, long to answer, adding it to a Q&A I'll do soon, stay posted
Bon montage malgré le peu de matières disponibles et fond musical parfait.
Love that boat, internet links are crap, where can you buy it?

Awesome to see you crossing the pond again. I wanted to know, what is that Blue thing you wear round your neck? Is that a remote control? What make or brand?
It is a remote control for the auto pilot.
NKE is the brand.
As they day: autopilot remote control, NKE
Anyone know what hes using for auto helm? I don't see any sheet tiller steering or wind vain. Great videos

I want to know, how You transform the weatherforecast into Your Sheets and how it works ;-)
Good question, long to answer, adding it to a Q&A I'll do soon, stay posted
Great 😀😎
Hugo, pour mon information personnelle, sur quelle latitude + ou - 2 degrés naviguais-tu en direction de la Guadeloupe? merci, salutations
A ce moment la de la transat je devais être autour de 22N

Did I miss the boat tour for this?
Maybe, but you can check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/Hk0G13ptKYk/v-deo.html
So would the non-scow boats have a slight edge in the light winds?, can't wait to see how this one plays out.
Indeed, scow bow doesn't really like light stuff...
I know you don’t like to ask but what’s the best way to help support this effort? Kiss kiss patron PayPal what?
Hey, thanks a lot for asking. I have no Patreon and Paypal stopped it's moneypot feature....
So I guess you can subscribe, like the videos and speak to your friends about the channel :)
Thanks a lot
:-)
Dig the content - I have for a while. Please, however, no more ukulele/whistling music - it's played out.
Yeah, Its like the staple of every youtuber to use the same non copyright music, bit brutal at this point
Haha, ok ;)
