For any past veterans of the Transat Jacques Vabre aboard the MOD70s this Saturday there are familiar waters and winds when they pass Salvador de Bahia, Brazil s previous finish destination for the Transat Jacques Vabre, and even if they have not been this way before on the Transat Jaques Vabre, all four on board the two MOD70s are circumnavigators many times over on the crewed Volvo Ocean Race. Class 40 leaders are at the Canaries where GDF SUEZ and MARE have extended their lead.
