For its first participation in the Vendée Globe, Banque Populaire signed with Armel Le Cléac’h in January, a brilliant second place after a hard duel. A few weeks after the launch of the Maxi Banque Populaire Solo with VII, the main objective for the Route du Rhum 2014, Banque Populaire and Armel Le Cléac’h announce their engagement to the next Vendée Globe 2016.
Banque Populaire is already working on a new IMOCA monohull to provide Armel the best supports for his third participation in this legendary solo race around the world.
