Este libro narra la historia de los barcos que han competido por cruzar el Atlántico lo más rápido posible. El autor, Eric Tabarly, comparte su experiencia al batir el récord con su embarcación Paul Ricard. Publicado en 1981 por Editorial Noray, este libro de 192 páginas ofrece una visión detallada de las regatas y travesías en el océano Atlántico.
Éric Marcel Guy Tabarly was a French naval officer and yachtsman, a naval architect and boat designer too. He developed a passion for offshore racing very early on and won several ocean races such as the Ostar in 1964 and 1976, ending English domination in this specialty. Several of his wins broke long standing records. He owed his successes to his exceptional mastery of sailing and of each one of his boats, to both physical and mental stamina and, in some cases, to technological improvements built into his boats. Through his victories, Tabarly inspired an entire generation of ocean racers and contributed to the development of nautical activities in France.
