The GLY World Odyssey 500 yachts brought gifts, their own and gifts received from Byond Relief NZ & Rotary Russel island NZ in Opua to be transported to the 10 local communities visited in May 2023. In order to avoid problems, these 'small' gifts were only given after a public event was arranged with the local village leader so everything was done 'in the open' and shared fairly between the local people. To preserve their dignity, the sailors accepted the generous gifts of fresh fruits & local handicrafts given to them. A win-win situation as it should always be! Thanks also to our fund raising patrons who generously donated solar lights (seen in another video) to these communities. This 'mission' was born after the last 2 tropical cyclones and earthquake that hit Vanuatu in March 2023. Thankfully most communities are quite resilient but still need some help in the aftermath of previous cyclones where little help was received because of pandemic restrictions. Thanks to s/v Fou de Bassan for short video.

► Full report in Multihulls World N°201: https://www.multihulls-world.com/articles-catamaran-trimaran/cmc-race-and-rally-2025-the-fun-rendezvous-for-multihulls ► For its sixth edition, the CMC hasn’t set the record the number of participants, with 23 multihulls registered. On the other hand, the atmosphere both on and off the water has never been better. The trade winds, in fine form at between 20 and 25 knots, undoubtedly had something to do with it... The five entrants in CSA 1 enjoyed superb courses towards Saba, Saint-Barts and Anguilla. The HH66 Lee Overlay Partners (ex Nemo) put on a great show, impressively flying a hull and, above all, peak speeds pushing 30 knots. The Gunboat 72 Layla was not to be outdone, with her GPS recording a top speed of 24.5 knots. The La Grande-Motte shipyard's first flybridge catamaran won the overall race on corrected time. The Diam 24 fleet was of course severely tested by the choppy conditions, but there too, they put on quite a show. In this fury of spray and exciting runs, the crew of Anomaly came out on top, leaving their rivals with no chance of a rematch. For the past two years, the CMC has been running a second division called Rally. This year, the 9 participants were accompanied - and looked after - by our Marketing Director Gwen Dorning. The fleet headed to Phillipsburg, where beach games were organized on the first day, followed by a fireworks display in the bay, then headed for Anse Marcel and finally Saint-Barts - a dream program which is already scheduled for next year, with dates running from January 29 to February 1. ► 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 600 multihulls tests!
