Jérémie Beyou, who was one of the outstanding pre-start favourites to win the Vendée Globe, crossed the finish line in 13th place on Saturday 6 February 2021.
Beyou had to return to Les Sables d’Olonne because of technical breakdowns and restart over nine days after the fleet started on Sunday 8 November.
Starting 32nd and last when he left the dock again more than nine days behind his fellow competitors Beyou achieved a feat that was never considered one of his targets, finishing in the middle of the fleet.
The skipper of Charal finished at 08:15:58 hrs UTC in an elapsed time of 89 days, 18 hours, 58 seconds.
He finished 9 days, 15 hours, 12 seconds after winner Yannick Bestaven.
Finishing in 14th place, just a few hours behind Beyou, was Romain Attanasio who crossed the finish line in an elapsed time is 90 days, 02 hours, 46 minutes and 02 seconds.
