NYC Member Tom Dolan Wins Stage Two of the 55th La Solitaire Figaro!
CONGRATULATIONS!!
Crossing the finish line off Royan at 14:06:20 hrs yesterday afternoon, Tom (Smurfit Kappa-Kingspan) won the 515 nautical miles of Stage 2 of the 55th La Solitaire Figaro Paprec, which started from GijĂłn, NW Spain, on Sunday afternoon.
Tom took the lead early on Monday after moving north to best negotiate a cold front, which allowed him to be first into the best breeze. First to turn north at the Isla Sisarga Grande on Monday afternoon, the Irish solo sailor gained a five-minute time bonus for winning the Intermediate Sprint and has led the race all the way back across the Bay of Biscay to Royan, which lies at the entrance of the Gironde Estuary north of Bordeaux.
