The 9 x World Champion, Your Race Around the World, Remote 40 footers and Flying Cats. From winning nine world titles to heading deep into the Southern Ocean aboard a 40 footer, from taking an F50 cat fully airborne to the next generation of round the world racing for everyone, this week we take a look at four very different corners of the sport starting with Ian Williams’ incredible ninth win in the World Match Racing Tour. How did the defining day play out? Meanwhile at the opposite end of the scale the fleet of Class 40’s competing in the Globe 40 race are heading to the most remote point at sea where the International Space Station provides the closest access to other humans. We take a quick look at SailGP’s opening event where the local ‘doctor’ has been causing a few breakages, injuries and hairy moments, before turning our attention to the new 72footer that you could be racing around the world in 2027.
Charlie Dalin didn’t just win the Vendee Globe he smashed it out of the park, destroyed the record and sailed a near flawless race. He was pushed hard by Yoann Richomme the whole way round and crossed the line just under a day later in second. His first lap of the planet was played out at an incredible pace. But what made Charlie Dalin and his record breaking IMOCA Macif Santé Prévoyance so quick?
