German skipper Boris Herrmann (Seaexplorer-Yacht Club de Monaco) crossed the finish line of the Vendée Globe off Les Sables d’Olonne this morning at 10:19:45hrs UTC to place in a provisional fourth place. He must wait until this evening for Jean Le Cam to finish to see if the veteran 61 years old will displace him because of his 16 hrs and 15 mins of time compensation.
