HELEN is the first in a remarkable triptych of late 1930s 3rd International Rule 8-Metres drawn by experienced designer to the Rule and Olympic gold medal winning helmsman Sir Thomas Glen-Coats; built on the Clyde in consecutive years at the Mylne family’s Bute Slip Dock Co. yard, where Glen-Coats was a director and major backer. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/765/HELEN They were among the last full keel 8mRs built in Britain and represent the pinnacle of truly classic 8-Metre design. At the end of her initial class-racing days, conversion by her original builder to an able, and of course fast, cruiser-racer kept HELEN very much alive, so that when the 8-Metre Class revival began in the early 2000s, she was a natural subject for restoration and application of the subtle authenticity and performance treatments allowed under the Sira Cup World Championship Rules for boats built before 1960. HELEN is very well equipped and optimised to be competitive at the next major 8mR championship and simply to be enjoyed as a supremely elegant and fleet of foot day/ weekend racer-cruiser.

🇫🇷 Chose faite pour Yoann Richomme qui vient de mettre à l'eau le flotteur Argo qu'il avait embarqué à bord de son IMOCA. Ce flotteur enverra des informations de température et salinité de l'eau à la surface et dans les profondeurs. 🇬🇧 This has now been achieved by Yoann Richomme, who has just launched the Argo float that he took on board his IMOCA. This float will send information on the temperature and salinity of the water at the surface and in the depths. ------------------------ ➡️ SUIVEZ-NOUS ! // FOLLOW US ! 🔗 Website : www.vendeeglobe.org 📸 Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/vendeeglobe/ 🐦 Twitter FR : https://twitter.com/VendeeGlobe | Twitter ENG : https://twitter.com/VendeeGlobeENG 🕺 TikTok : https://www.tiktok.com/@vendee_globe 💻 Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/VendeeGlobe 💼 LinkedIn : https://www.linkedin.com/company/vendée-globe/
