Video of the restart of the Ocean 50 and Class 40 starts from the TransAt Jacques Vabre in Lorient, as the 47 boats - sailed two-handed - head out into the left over swell from two Atlantic storms, and ahead of a third due to hit on Wednesday.

We will carry the start of the 40 boats in the IMOCA60 start from Le Havre - which gets underway on the morning of November 7.
