Time is distance. And distance slowly opens its way through time. In two or three weeks sailing, time is going to stretch according to sea’s behaviour. It will also become proportional to action. The untold luck, yet foilers’ speed, is that of setting the planet back to a human scale. (Halvard Mabire, sailor, interview about the Vendée Globe, dans Le Monde, 14.11.2020)

The sailor lives a huntsman rhythm, interlocked to boat’s imperatives. Journeys last 24 hours. A landsman journey is eight, ten, twelve hours sometimes. May land wreck ongoing time: a thread’s cut, some mandatory photo sending… Indeed, land time endlessly recalls the need of saying. (Halvard Mabire, sailor, interview about the Vendée Globe, dans Le Monde, 14.11.2020)
