Merry Christmas guys! Thanks so much for your support in 2022 and I hope you really enjoy this time with your family & friends. Hopefully Santa got you your dream boat and you'll be out enjoying yourself this Christmas on the water! For those of you in the Northern Hemisphere I hope you're also having a great time with family and hopefully also using this time to get your antifoul and engine service done as summer 2023 is coming and I look forward to getting back up to your half of the world as soon as the temperatures start to warm up again! You're all legends! Merry Christmas Dan Jones

While sailing down the coast of California I went up to the bow of the boat to get some insta360 footage and Ira pulled into a fatty! With a double reefed main and 100% jib, we still got the boat up to 15 knots on this one. Tons of fun! #ourladydefiant #yachtracing #sailboat #liveaboard #insta360 #Jboat #J133

► Las Palmas, almost an unavoidable stopover on the Atlantic route from Europe, welcomed thousands of sailors during the month of November, when the north-easterly trade winds begin to set in. These crews included a total of 1,300 sailors flying the ARC colors (ARC and ARC +) aboard 253 sailboats. During our visits to the pontoons, we got a measure of the Starlink revolution: only one entrant was equipped last year, compared with 80% of the fleet today... The quality of the connections offered by this satellite operator makes it possible to efficiently follow weather developments, keep in touch those ashore and even work as if at the office! For the first time since we’ve been following ocean-going crews, Vincent, aboard Outremer 51 Piment Rouge, will be sharing his transatlantic passage with us via his videos, which we’ll be relaying. Another special feature of this 2023 edition will be the large number of diesel cans strapped to the guardwires: in a context of very light winds, unusual for the season, the engines (authorized with a penalty for the Multihull category) are likely to be much in demand aboard many of the multihulls. After two weeks of seminars, meetings and safety inspections, the atmosphere on the docks was becoming truly electric during the last three days running up to the start. Studying the weather, stocking up on fresh supplies, washing fruit and vegetables - everyone realized that there was an ocean to cross... Some crew members are more Zen than others: the oldest sailor in the ARC, Joff Hutchinson, 89, declared: “I’ve been sailing for 82 years and I’ve always wanted to cross the Atlantic. Now that my sons have retired, there’s no better time”. The start was relaxed, with the fleet setting off in a light southerly breeze and glorious sunshine, guaranteeing a smooth start for everyone to get their sea legs. ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!
