This photo shows an anchor on a sailor cap on frenchman Bernard Poitau's boat "Anticylone" as he takes part in the Vendee Globe, the solo non-stop round the world yacht race, on the Virtual Regatta sailing race simulator, spending 22 hours a day on a boat on slipways in his garden to raise charity funds in Saint-Julien-Molin-Molette, central-eastern France, on December 3, 2024. Virtual Regatta is a free online sailing game where competitors from all over the world confront each other in real-time regattas alongside major offshore races with live weather conditions. The tenth edition of Vendee Globe, which takes place every four years, sailed out from Les Sables-d'Olonne in western France on November 10 with 40 skippers embarking on a 24,300 nautical mile course which will take roughly three months to complete.
