"Le tour de la Martinique des Yoles Rondes" is the biggest sporting event of the year in Martinique.[1] It takes place every year between late July and early August. This is a unique sport in the Martinique world and attracts a huge crowd.[2][3] The principle is easy: eight crews travel the 110-mile eight-stage race around the island.

Organization

The fleet is composed of 21 affiliated yoles taking part in various events organized by the Society of yoles rondes. Crews are made up of associations. They rely on sponsors to help them finance their various activities. To do this, they provide communication tools such as sailing, hulling, and keeping teammates. This partnership is governed by a contract between the association and partners.

Media

The practice of yoles comes with a wide media coverage. The local press is a special situation since France-Antilles newspaper offers an additional "special turn", and the TV channel Radio France Overseas (RFO) offers broadcasts every evening during the event for "news of the race". The tour also gives several places emissions, increasing the scope and duration of the event.

Placement

  • Red shirt: Leading time (Each stage is timed. The yole with the lowest total time will be declared the winner.)
  • Blue shirt: First (The yole which crosses the finish line first)
  • Pink shirt: Second
  • Beige shirt: Third
  • Light blue shirt: Fourth
  • Violet shirt: Fifth
  • Green shirt with white dots: Leader in points (A number of points will be awarded based on ranking by place. The yole with the lowest score will be declared the winner.)
  • Yellow shirt: Most improved (The yole that on two successive rankings wins the largest number of seats, including the prologue,)
  • Orange shirt: Militancy (A ranking will be made between the last five yoles. The jersey will be awarded to the skiff which has made in less time than the distance between a transit point and the arrival.)
  • White shirt: Favorite Releases (Press reports any maneuver or anecdote that has caught attention)
  • Green shirt: Defi south space (Takes place on the steps located on the southern coast of the island: diamond, Saint Anne, François. The gig that has the smallest total time on stage will win the challenge.)
