Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I would like to build a racing team for several upcoming campaigns, starting this year with a training in mid November and some races such as the Aegean 600 race 2025, and possibly the ARC in 2026.

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

share experienceseek adventureface challenges

The boat is an ex IMOCA 60 that has successfully completed the Vendee Globe 2008/9 and finished the Rolex Middle Sea Race 2019 at favorable place. The boat is still in its original IMOCA design with some minor adaptions for larger crews and increasing comfort for cruising.

What is expected of the crew

committedenthusiasticfit & healthyfriendlyskilledrarely/unlikely seasickopen mindedcan pay own expenses

Crew members who are enthusiastic sailors are very welcome. The level of required experience depends on the composition of the whole team. Please consider that sailing on an ex IMOCA 60 is quite challenging with little comfort but amazing sailing experience.
