The third trimaran of the Whaou! series, skippered once again by <\/span>Franck-Yves Escoffier<\/b>, was built to the maximum dimensions allowed by the rules of the Multi50 class (renamed Ocean\u00a0Fifty in 2021). Larger than her predecessor, <\/span>Cr\u00eapes Whaou! 3<\/span><\/i> sets a greater sail area and weighs in 400\u00a0kg lighter. The mast has been stepped further aft, allowing her to carry a much larger jib on the solent stay. Although bulkier at the stern, the main hull is narrower overall. The long, wave-piercing floats are more effective in heavy seas.<\/span><\/p>\n

No revolution, just evolutions.<\/b> By moving the weight further aft and increasing the buoyancy of the stern section, the designers were able to refine her entry into the water.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2012 she took the name <\/span>Fen\u00eatr\u00e9A-Cardinal<\/span><\/i> and then <\/span>Fen\u00eatr\u00e9A-Mix Buffet<\/span><\/i>. With <\/span>Erwan Le Roux<\/b> at the helm, she secured victories in the Transat Jacques Vabre (2013 and 2015) and the 2014 Route du Rhum.<\/span><\/p>\n

Subsequently fitted with one-design foils created by VPLP specifically for the Multi50 class, she finished second in the 2018 Route du Rhum\u00a02018. Sold the following year to <\/span>Gilles Lamir\u00e9<\/b> and renamed <\/span>Groupe\u00a0GCA-1001 Sourires<\/span><\/i>, she won the 2019 Transat Jacques Vabre crewed by her owner and Antoine Carpentier.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2023, the trimaran comes into the hands of Christopher Pratt<\/strong> and becomes Wind of Trust<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n

The Ocean Fifty is renamed Sodebo Fifty<\/em> in 2026, with L\u00e9onard Legrand<\/strong> at the helm, aiming to prepare for the Route du Rhum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
