You can read about the upcoming attempt on http://yvan-bourgnon.fr/
And a rough bing translate on the objectives of the attempt:
Carry out the first World Tour with a non-habitable sailboat on a category of sport of 6.3 meters long. This would lead on another first: the World Tour on a boat less than 6.5 meters.
• Demonstrate to the public that we can achieve human-sized challenges without being obliged to spend vast sums, deliver adventure at the centre of the debates.
• Departure: 5 October 2013 of Sables D'olonne for an adventure of 11 months with stopovers and 50,000 kms to the counter!
• No assistance, no gps (navigation to the sextant): return to simple values of navigation
• Selected crew: Vincent Beauvarlet, former champion of the young world of windsurfing
