Clarisse Crémer sets new World Records

The World Sailing Speed Record Council has confirmed the establishment of two new World Records set by Clarisse Crémer (FRA) when she raced her IMOCA 60 Banque Populaire X in the 2020-21 Vendée Globe. By completing the 21600 nm course in 87 days 2 hours 24 minutes and 25 seconds (Nov. 8 to Feb. 3), Crémer set a new Around the World Eastabout women’s record in both the solo and open categories, improving on the time of 94:04:25:40 posted by Ellen MacArthur (GBR) on February 2001 in the same race.
