âș Discover our full article on our website: https://www.multihulls-world.com/news-catamaran-trimaran/arc-2024-almost-3000-nautical-miles-ahead-of-them âș The success of blue water cruising rallies is undeniable, and in this field, the World Cruising Club hosts the biggest, with no fewer than 234 yachts registered for the ARC+ and the ARC combined. We were in Las Palmas for the start of the ARC. The first thing we noticed on the marina pontoons was the growing number of multihulls: there were 33 in 2021, 37 in 2022, 44 last year and 45 this year, out of the 140 boats registered for the start. This brings the number of two and three-hulled yachts taking part to 32% - compared with 28% in 2023, when 156 yachts were entered. The most represented multihull brand this year is Fountaine Pajot with 8 examples, followed by Outremer and Lagoon - with 7 and 5 catamarans respectively. More generally, these transatlantic rallies are always well attended, even if the edition weâre following this year shows a slight decline in favor of the ARC+. Launched in 2013, this rally leaves Las Palmas two weeks ahead of the ARC and includes a stopover in Cape Verde, which seems to be very popular before reaching Granada. The âtraditionalâ ARC, meanwhile, is celebrating its 39th edition and has always set off from Las Palmas. The finish line is in Rodney Bay, Saint Lucia. Itâs interesting to note that the format proposed by the organizers, which incorporates safety checks, training modules and comprehensive checks, has become even safer with the advent of satellite internet â thanks to Starlink. Crews with little or no experience of ocean sailing, of which there are now quite a large number, can benefit from assistance that would have been unimaginable just a couple of years ago... In port, the last three days were devoted to final preparations for the multihulls and, of course, victualing - fresh supplies are only taken on board the day before. This is also the day for cleaning fruit with water - it is then hung in well-ventilated nets. Sunday November 24: only a few clouds on the sky and an absence of wind... a trickle of south-easterly air decided to settle over the start line. The whole multihull fleet was ready to set out across the Atlantic, with the exception of one of the Outremer 55s, which had a few technical issues - fortunately, it was able to be hauled out thanks to the brand-new 850-ton travelift, inaugurated just a week previously. At the start, it was Mark and Penny Belcherâs Lagoon 400 Two Hoots (UK) that crossed the line first, followed by Kenneth Frantzâs Elba 45 My Cherie Amour (USA) and Francesco Rongoniâs Neel 47 trimaran Ferdinand (FR). Then, as if by magic, the wind shifted to the northeast and began to strengthen: the trade winds at last! On the deck of the Spanish warship traditionally chartered as a committee boat for the start of the event, Paul Tetlow, the new director of the ARC, didnât hide his relief as soon as the final start was made: just 5 days ago, the weather forecasts were predicting a strong southerly flow which would have compromised the start - to the point where a three-day delay was even being considered. âș Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld âș Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!

@nexdiving was kind enough to have me visit for a couple of days to learn about regulators. Plus, I got set up with a new sidemount harness, which I absolutely love.â â It has been YEARS since my Scuba Pro servicing course, and it was really helpful to get all of my questions answered and have hands-on experience with these regulators. Now it's time to practice working on them đ€â â Nex Underwater Products regulators are assembled by a knowledgable team in Monterey, California, and are the best regulators I've ever owned. â â See full video on my YTube channel. đ in bio.â â If you check their gear out, use code AZUL to purchase, so I can track metrics. It's not an affiliate code (yet), but I hope to be able to offer you all a deal on these products soon!â
