We chat to Simon Koster. Racing the TJV on the IMOCA Hublot with Alan Roura. Simon is in his first season on the 60's having come through the Mini and Class 40 fleets. He started out in the Mini6.50 in 2012 and competed in three Mini Transats scoring two podiums – in the series 2013, and the proto 2017. He then moved to the Class40's with Valentin Gautier - three seasons resulted in a 2nd place in the Transat Jacques Vabre! Whilst he was stuck in dock we jumped to introduce what many consider to be one of the nicest blokes in the fleet.
