► Conceived in 2013 to ease the pressure on the traditional ARC, which has been taking sailors across the Atlantic from East to West since 1986, the ARC+ has become increasingly popular thanks to its stopover in Mindelo, Cape Verde. According to Paul Tetlow, General Manager of the Atlantic Rally for Cruisers, the Mindelo stopover has many advantages - especially for family crews. The route, although longer overall, is in fact two legs shorter (11 to 16 days for Mindelo - St. Georges) than the ARC's “direct” transatlantic passage and features a generally more clement southerly route. The stopover also serves to strengthen the bonds between the crews. Arriving in Grenada, in the far south of the West Indies, means there are no questions about the Caribbean program: you're heading north until May, and that's that! This year, no fewer than 91 yachts ranging in size from 36 to 72 feet (11 to 22 m) docked at Grenada's luxurious Port Louis marina. Among them were no fewer than 27 catamarans - a ratio that is steadily increasing in favor of multihulls. On the dock, 434 sailors of 26 different nationalities shared their ocean experience. 37 children took part in the adventure: among them, Lauren, Rebecca and Michela, aboard the Dutch Excess 11 AtC, looked after Archie, the ARC+'s teddy bear mascot... The ARC+, deliberately oriented towards cruising, has no racing division, whereas the ARC does, but only for monohulls. All multihulls are therefore authorized to use their engines, but they are required to declare the times they use them, and an hourly penalty is logically assigned. It can be strategically useful for getting out of an area of calms more quickly and optimize passage time. As a consequence of this “motor-driven” regatta, it's the compensated time that motivates the crews and interests us. Note that 10% of the fleet did not use their engines at all. ► 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!

È passato pressoché un anno. Quante cose sono cambiate! Il bello di rivedersi dopo tanto tempo è proprio questo: fare il punto insieme, ognuno con i propri traguardi e obiettivi. Giulia per esempio un anno fa non aveva ancora uno studio suo (🥹). Poi i tuffi, le chiacchiere leggere e i momenti spensierati. Questa è una cosa che ci mancava quando eravamo da soli al di là dell’oceano. Il pomeriggio trascorre in fretta e ci ritroviamo presto a salutarci di nuovo. Altre promesse, altri appuntamenti. La calma torna lentamente su Julia (per tutto il giorno le onde ci hanno sballottati) mentre le luci del tramonto si fanno via via più arancioni. L’allenamento inizia proprio in mezzo a un tramonto da togliere il fiato e poco dopo purtroppo il fiato va davvero via a causa di tutti quegli squat e affondi 😅 Domani arriverà una (altra) persona speciale! 🫶 Cami
