A great size mirrored by a great talentPart of the crew onboard Groupama 3 during the Atlantic record attempt this summer, Stan Honey is going to have to melt into
the French crew. A professional from head to toe, the Yankee has spent some time in France with Sylvain Mondon and Franck
Cammas, studying the several tens of circumnavigations of the globe in order to equip himself with the same language and culture
as them. With his great size mirrored by his great talent, the man with 51 patents in the media and television domain will
be keen to beat this record in memory of his friend, Steve Fossett.
