Boat Transport

On Tuesday April 1st, 2014, the Gold of Bengal boat of adventurer-engineer Corentin de Chatelperron reached Concarneau harbor in order to take part in the prix de la solidarité, organized by the 2014 AG2R la mondiale transatlantic race.

 

What is the prix de la solidarité?

Each skipper taking part in the race has selected an organization to support.

Once the race starts, the public can vote throughout the race for the organization of his choice.

After the race, the 3 organizations with the most votes will get a prize (between 2,000 and 5,000 euros).

Gwénolé Gahinet, former Logways skipper, will be at the start of this double-handed transatlantic race with skipper Paul Meilhat on Sunday April 6th. And of course, it’s Corentin de Chatelperron’s organisation, Gold Of Bengal, that they wanted to support.
