The Vendée Globe is not going as planned for Alan Roura. An oil leak at the height of one of the two hydraulic jacks and a faulty keel tilt system are causing problems for the Geneva man, as his team announced on St. Stephen’s Day. A similar problem had already arisen in “La Fabrique” at the end of November.
Is the career threatened?
In the event that Roura is unable to repair the system, which is considered crucial for the boat’s competitiveness, he will discuss the situation with the team and make a “proper decision,” he said.
Roura had reached the virtual half-time mark of circumnavigating the world at Christmas upon entering the Pacific Ocean south of Tasmania. In the intermediate ranking, it ranks 15th.
