Warta-Polpharma se déroute sur Fortaleza (Brésil)

Lundi 19 mars, 13h00 GMT.

Victime d’une avarie sur sa coque bâbord hier soir, dimanche 18 mars vers 20h00 GMT, Warta-Polpharma a fait demi-tour et se dirige dorénavant vers la côte brésilienne. C’est Fortaleza qui est la ville choisie car elle est potentiellement la mieux équipée pour réparer “ proprement ” le catamaran blessé. L’avarie se situe dans la partie immergée de la coque bâbord à deux mètres devant le bras de liaison. La progression au près dans l’alizé de nord-est se révélant impossible, Roman Paszke et ses hommes ont fort judicieusement décidé de mettre cap sur le Brésil.
