► 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!

Und dem Wunsch, selbst ein Fixstern zu sein – für all jene, die mehr suchen als „nur eine Yacht“. DOBNER YACHTING entstand aus Leidenschaft für das Meer, aus Erfahrung in der gehobenen Hotellerie, und aus dem tiefen Wunsch heraus, nicht nur Yachten, sondern Momente mit Bedeutung zu gestalten. Als Symbol wählten wir den achtzackigen Stern. Jede seiner Spitzen steht für ein Segment, ja eine eigene Welt: Akademie, Charter, Styling, Service, Sales, Yachtzubehör, Training, Fashion und Events. Unsere Philosophie? Nicht einzelne Dienstleistungen stehen im Mittelpunkt unseres Wirkens, sondern das perfekte Zusammenspiel von allem. Nicht „einfach Yachting“, sondern ein Universum aus Vertrauen, Gestaltung und dem Mut, Träume zu leben. Wir sind da, um das Meer spürbar zu machen. Um Erlebnisse zu schaffen, die berühren. Um Menschen auf ihrer Reise zu begleiten – mit Stil, Verlässlichkeit und echter Hingabe. SAVE THE DATE: ab 8. Juli 2025 online! www.dobner-yachting.com
