In its twelve years of existence, the Transat Jacques Vabre has found its own rhythm and format. It has managed to convince competitors and delight the public, justifying the choices made by its organisers and sponsors. The original idea is very simple: a major race should be based upon an historic maritime route. Like a good cup of coffee, an event is a clever mixture of tastes, vintages and aromas. Thus it was that an espresso transatlantic was born!
