VIDEO: M-34 guided tour

Nick Black shows us around Oman Sail's new Tour de France a la Voile one design

For this year, the Tour de France a la Voile has a new steed - the Archambault M-34. While the first example was launched last year, so the fleet is slowly growing and so far this season has participated in SPI Ouest France and most recently at the Guyadar Trophy. Winner of the latter was Oman Sail and in the video that follows, yacht design cum leading British IMOCA 60 shore crew cum M-34 sailor Nick Black gives us a guided tour to the new boat.

In this video Black tells us the price. In fact in the UK a M-34 will set you back £159,000 for boat, trailer, electronics and VAT but without sails.
