Foil-assisted and built for sustained high average speeds, Raven delivered a landmark performance in the 2026 RORC Transatlantic Race, taking Monohull Line Honours and setting a new monohull race record on the 3,000-nautical-mile course from Lanzarote to Antigua. Skippered by Damien Durchon, Raven completed the crossing in just under seven days, redefining the limits of modern offshore monohull performance. #RORCRacing #RORCTransatlanticRace #OffshoreRacing 📸 Daryl Wislang
