  • Francis Joyon (* 28. Mai 1956 in Hanches, Département Eure-et-Loir, Frankreich) ist ein französischer Hochseeregatta- und Rekordsegler. Unter anderem gewann er 2000 die namhafte Einhand-Transatlantikregatta OSTAR und 2001 das Fastnet-Rennen. 2004 umrundete Joyon als – nach zweiter – Einhandsegler die Welt auf einem Mehrrumpfboot, dem Trimaran Idec, und stellte dabei mehrere Einhandgeschwindigkeitsrekorde auf. Vier Jahre später brach er bei einer noch schnelleren Einhandweltumsegelung auf demselben Boot erneut Weltrekorde. 2016/2017 stellten Joyon und eine fünfköpfige Crew auf der Idec mit knapp 41 Segeltagen einen neuen Rekord für die schnellste Weltumsegelung auf. Im Jahr 2008 wurde Joyon vom französischen Seglerverband, der , zum Segler des Jahres (marin de l'année) ernannt. (de)
  • Francis Joyon (born 28 May 1956) is a French professional sailboat racer and yachtsman. Joyon and his crew currently hold the Jules Verne Trophy for circumnavigation, on IDEC SPORT (40 days 23 hours 30 minutes 30 seconds), nearly five days less than the previous reference time. He held the record for the fastest single-handed sailing circumnavigation from 2008 to 2016. Although previously well known as an offshore sailor, Joyon's real leap to international prominence came in February 2004 when the Breton became the fastest world solo yachtsman, setting a time of 72 days 22 hours and 54 minutes and 22 seconds, over 20 days faster than the previous record for a circumnavigation. During the record run he sailed more than 28,000 nautical miles (51,900 km) at an average speed of 15.5 knots (28.7 km/h) on the 27 metres (89 ft) IDEC. IDEC, formerly known as Sport Elec, had previously taken 71 days to win the Jules Verne Trophy. Joyon took only an extra day on his own with a boat not designed for single-handed sailing, original (over 10 year old) sails and no weather router. In February 2005 Ellen MacArthur beat Joyon's record by 1 day, 8 hours, 35 minutes, 49 seconds. On 6 July 2005 Francis Joyon and IDEC crossed the finishing line between Lizard Point and Ushant 6 days 4 hours 1 minute and 37 seconds after the start at Ambrose Light off New York, breaking the 11-year-old record of Laurent Bourgnon for the single-handed crossing of the Atlantic Ocean with a sailing boat. During the same voyage he also broke the 24-hour distance record for single-handed sailing by sailing 543 nautical miles (1,006 km) in one day on the 3 July 2005. Joyon's record voyage ended badly on 7 July while he was sailing back to his home port after completion of the transatlantic run. Joyon, who refused help to sail the boat home from the finish line and was still single-handed, was sailing across the English Channel. At a critical moment an exhausted Joyon fell asleep and the boat continued on autopilot. IDEC ran aground at the Pointe de Penmarc'h on the Breton coast. The €4 million trimaran was wrecked; Joyon escaped without injury. On 9 May 2006 Joyon announced that he was building a new muilti-hull to be called IDEC 2. His new boat is designed for solo sailing unlike the original IDEC, which was originally designed for crewed sailing. Design was by Nigel Irens & Bernard Cabaret. IDEC 2 weighs 11 tons, compared to his previous boat which weighed 16 tons, and has 10% more sail area. The new boat was seen as capable of taking 3 days off the existing record under the same weather conditions. On 23 November 2007 Joyon set off in IDEC 2 in an attempt to beat Ellen MacArthur's world record for a single handed circumnavigation. He achieved this on 20 January 2008 in 57 days, 13 hours 34 minutes and 6 seconds, in a voyage that is regarded as one of the most impressive sailing feats in recent history and in a time nearly two weeks less than the previous record.

Il commence sa carrière de coureur au large en 1988 et participe à sa première Route du Rhum en 1990. En 2000, il remporte sa première grande épreuve à l'occasion de la Transat anglaise. En 2004, il est le premier marin à boucler sans escale un tour du monde sur multicoque en solitaire. En 2008, il reprend le record à Ellen MacArthur et devient le nouveau détenteur du record du tour du monde à la voile en solitaire en 57 jours 13 h 34 min 6 s, sur le trimaran IDEC, avant que ce record ne soit battu en 2016, le jour de Noël par Thomas Coville sur Sodebo Ultim' qui boucle son tour du monde en moins de cinquante jour, puis par François Gabart établit en 42 jours 16 h 40 min 35 s. Il remporte ensuite de nombreux records océaniques, devenant l'un des meilleurs spécialistes. Le 26 janvier 2017, Francis Joyon et ses cinq hommes d'équipage s'emparent du nouveau record du tour du monde à la voile en équipage en 40 jours 23 h 30 min 30 s sur le trimaran Ultime IDEC Sport. Il s'empare ainsi du Trophée Jules-Verne, détenu jusqu'alors par Loïck Peyron et ses treize membres d'équipage sur Maxi Banque Populaire V améliorant au passage la marque de plus de quatre jours. Le 11 novembre 2018, au terme d'une arrivée très serrée avec François Gabart, qu'il dépasse à la sortie du canal des Saintes, il remporte la Route du Rhum pour sa septième participation, avec sept minutes d'avance sur son poursuivant.
