Field notes

The homepage functions as a campaign hub, linking the mission to team biographies, partner information, boat details, news, impact material, and multimedia. Its preparation timeline names training on both Limosa and the Maxi-Trimaran IDEC SPORT, followed by a planned weather-window departure. The page identifies Alexia Barrier as a central figure and attributes to her 18 Atlantic crossings, a 2021 solo Vendée Globe, and sailing mileage equivalent to 10 laps around the planet.
