Read the paper by Wang et al. 2023 (below) for more information! All robot demonstration videos were downloaded from the Supplementary Materials section of Wang et al 2023. ‘A versatile jellyfish-like robotic platform for effective underwater propulsion and manipulation’ Wang et al (2023), Science Advances, DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.adg0292

Thirty nine Class40 will be competing in the Rolex Fastnet Race in August. The fleet showing the biggest growth within the Rolex Fastnet Race is the Class40. Currently 39 of these mini IMOCAs are entered, a significant increase from the 19 that competed in 2019. The Rolex Fastnet Race now forms part of the official Class40 calendar, which these days features a packed international schedule. 17 years on, from when the simple Class40 box rule was created by French journalist sailor Patrice Carpentier, 172 examples have now been built, or are in build. A jaw-dropping 70 (including 25 brand new) are expected on the start line of next year’s Route du Rhum, when entries for the first time are having to be capped.
