Sponsored by the House of Corum, the maxi Banque Populaire V completed its round the world trip in record time, winning the Jules Verne Trophy, the prize for the fastest circumnavigation of the world by any type of yacht with no restrictions on the size of the crew.

The Maxi Banque Populaire V, sponsored by Corum, has entered the record books by taking the Jules Verne Trophy after 45 days 13 hours 42 minutes and 53 seconds at sea. Skipper Loïck Peyron and his crew have just covered the 29,002 miles of round-the-world sailing at an average speed of 26.51 knots.

In its role as official timekeeper, Corum offered each team member a dedicated watch in the shape of an Admiral’s Cup Seafender 48 Chrono Centro, personalised with their names. The model bears the inscription “2011 Trophée Jules Verne” on its dial, while the back of the piece is engraved with the outline of the route.

After a month of racing against the clock, the crew rounded Cape Horn on 23 December and sprinted back towards the equator and the northern hemisphere, sailing to the west of Azores before crossing the finish line at 23 :14.53 local time.
