Morgan Lagravière and Arnaud Jarlegan take first place at the St-Barth Cata Cup
Posted by gill_admin on 26th Nov 2014
For the 7th edition of the St-Barth Cata Cup, Gill was the Technical Clothing Sponsor. The St-Barth Cata Cup is a high-calibre sporting event where catamaran enthusiasts and competitors of various nationalities come together.
As expected, the weather conditions were rather rough for the racers. This caused some delays and even race cancellations to ensure maximum safety for the participants. However, the variable sea conditions lead to interesting strategic choices from the racers, especially amongst the leaders.
Everyone was expecting a battle between Besson and Cammas but in the end, the Lagravière-Jarlegan duo took the title from Cammas and Vandame, champions of the last edition of the St-Barth Cata Cup. Morgan said ‘It was tight up until the last race and it’s even more fun to win an event when you need to battle until the very end. Once again, Arnaud and I had a lot of fun since we are buddies before being teammates. When you enjoy yourself while doing something you love, it’s double the fun’.
