}}Vincent Riou (born January 9, 1972, Pont-l'Abbé, France) is a French sailor. He is the skipper of PRB, a 60-foot monohull. He won the 2004 edition of the Vendée Globe.[1]

Recent events

In the 2009 Vendée Globe, he lost his mast the day after a collision that occurred during the rescue of Jean Le Cam, whose boat had capsized.[2]

In the 2016 Vendée Globe, he sailed at a decent speed completing with front boats fitted with hydrofoils, but after 15 days 11 hours 58 minutes of racing and completing 27%[3] of the whole race, he was forced to retire after another collision with a UFO.[4] The almos exact same incident had happened to Vincent[5] in the 2012 Vendée Globe with that he is easily one of the most unfortunate sailors of the Vendée Globe.
