The fleet continues its push across the Atlantic, with some skippers level with the Azores and others closing in on the northern tip of Spain. All share the same target: Guadeloupe.

Progress varies boat to boat and class to class, but between manoeuvres there's clearly still time for a photo. Skippers have been sending back selfies from the boat, small windows into life days into a solo transatlantic crossing.

Among those featured are Guillaume Pirouelle, Elodie Bonafous, Pierre Quiroga, Boris Herrmann and Baptiste Hulin. Alexia Barrier, Mathieu Claveau, Arnaud Boissières and Aina Bauza Roig have also sent images from the bow or cockpit.
Mikael Mergui, Luke Berry and Sébastien Marsset are out there too, cameras in hand between sail changes. So are Maxime Sorel, Pierre-Louis Attwell, Christophe Bachmann and Lomano Takasi.

It's a small thing, a selfie mid-ocean. But it says something about where these sailors are at this point in the race: faces lit by low Atlantic sun, salt-streaked decks in the background, the boat clearly still moving.

For a race that's as much about solitude as speed, these images offer a rare glimpse of the person behind the helm. No shore crew, no media pack. Just a sailor, a phone, and whatever the ocean is doing that hour.

Guadeloupe is still a long way off for most of the fleet. But the selfies keep coming, a small ritual before the next manoeuvre, the next sail change, the next watch.
