Boris Hermann, enjoying Christmas Day, deep in the Southern Ocean (55'S) in the Vendée Globe. Just in front of Jean Le Cam in Yes we Cam, who Boris calls “Jean Le Roi”. The King. Indeed. The oldie in the fleet. With an older boat, not foiling. Doing great. 

Doing 17.8 knots of boat speed in 13 knots of wind. Wow. Even Boris is amazed. “That’s foiling!”  He's enjoying it so much.
