Here is a rough bing translate of the article:

The 13th edition of the Grand Prix of the Ecole Navale ended Sunday in Crozon peninsula. Vincent Riou (PRB) won the event in the series of the diam. 24 One Design, while Bernard Stamm (Poujoulat chimneys), is awarded the 3rd place of the event. Vincent Riou (RPB): " balance sheet is good since we won! What is nice is that it was seven boats. It's starting to put a little play, especially because there are people who are now in the game, as Bruno Jourdren which began during the Grand Prix Guyader and which have made significant progress"
