RNLI boat assisted race yacht to Salcombe
On June 3, 2026, the 'Baltic Exchange III' was launched from Salcombe, after the race yacht 'SOS Villages D’enfants' lost its mast at 3.20 p.m. four nautical miles South of Bolt Tail. The skipper Edouard Golbery has been forced to abandon La Solitaire du Figaro Paprec in heavy seas off the English coast, during the final leg of the solo race, with Golbery was holding the 13th positiom.. A severe squall with winds of 35-38 knots brought down the mast. The skipper was unharmed and made the decision to release the mast to prevent further damage to the hull in the challenging sea conditions. Golbery managed to get his engine running and proceeded towards Salcombe under their own power, whilst being escorted by the lifeboat.
