Sam Davies’ Vendee Globe difficulty potentially over after ‘violent’ crash
Sam Davies has actually explained the “violent” accident which sent her flying throughout her boat, hurting her ribs, however more importantly, potentially ending her Vendee Globe challenge. After compatriot Alex Thomson was forced to stop racing last weekend following a collision with sea debris which caused his boat Hugo Boss permanent rudder damage, now Davies’ race is in jeopardy. Davies’s occurrence is the latest worrying event in a race which has currently seen one race preferred restart, another two pull out, including Thomson, and the remarkable rescue of a fourth from his life raft after his boat “folded in two” in the South Atlantic previously this week.
