Profile

At the age of 31, Guirec Soudée has already sailed solo around the world via the North and South Poles and spent 130 days in the Greenland ice with his hen Monique. In 2021, he crossed the Atlantic rowing from East to West in 74 days, then set off again in the other direction, for the North Atlantic. He capsized off Canada but continued on his way, with no means of communication and no weather. 107 days later he reached the island of Ushant. In 2022, Guirec switched to the IMOCA circuit at the helm of Freelance.com. Today, he has only one thing in mind: lining up for the start of the 2024 Vendée Globe.
