In 2018, she undertook a major refit including a new stainless-steel keel, new rudder, etc. worth 400 K EUR. She will race the Route du Rhum 2022 with skipper Catherine Chabaud who raced in the 1996-97 Vendee Globe Race. LE CIGARE ROUGE will be available for sale at the end of the Race either in Guadeloupe or back in France.
