Published: 01 May 2025
Day 12 of Transat Paprec unveils a contest not just on the waves, but in the mental domains of the participants, Charlotte Yven, and Hugo Dhallenne.

The arduous journey of Transat Paprec had introduced its fair share of challenges for Charlotte Yven and Hugo Dhallenne. As they reached the twelfth day of this strenuous navigation race, it turned out to be a testament to their endurance, not just physically but mentally.

‘Now, it’s all in the mind too,’ they claimed, inherently acknowledging the crucial role of mental tenacity in sailing. Their encounter on the twelfth day was more than just wave combat; it was wrestling with their own inner strength and mental durability. As the sea mirrored their persistence, the waves seemed to voice their quiet determination.

As Yven and Dhallenne continued to valiantly push forward in their journey, their philosophy was clear- it wasn’t just the strongest who survived but those most adaptable to changing currents, both on the sea and within themselves. Their sailing act has indeed added a laudable chapter to the Transat Paprec race.
