This record crosses the Mediterranean sea from Marseille to the light house of Sidi Bou Saïd in Carthage, Tunisia. It stayed for 11 years in the hands of Florence Arthaud before Steve Fossett, again, take it in 2002. This course is relatively short but a good weather system is crucial to cross the Med. Which is famous for its complex and brutal weather systems. Despite the fact that the record lasts less than a day, it requires several manoeuvres and questionings.
