A daring voyage round the world, unaided by modern technology. A tribute to freedom and tradition.

In 2021, Marie Tabarly refitted her father's yacht, the Pen Duick VI, to compete in the 2023 Ocean Globe Race, a crewed round-the-world race with stops, aiming to secure the boat’s first victory. Fifty years after her father Éric Tabarly, she raced without GPS or modern communication. This book recounts two years of adventure, including eight months of racing, blending her love of the seas with an intimate account of a collective feat—a tribute to freedom, the oceans, and her crew.
