► Las Palmas, almost an unavoidable stopover on the Atlantic route from Europe, welcomed thousands of sailors during the month of November, when the north-easterly trade winds begin to set in. These crews included a total of 1,300 sailors flying the ARC colors (ARC and ARC +) aboard 253 sailboats. During our visits to the pontoons, we got a measure of the Starlink revolution: only one entrant was equipped last year, compared with 80% of the fleet today... The quality of the connections offered by this satellite operator makes it possible to efficiently follow weather developments, keep in touch those ashore and even work as if at the office! For the first time since we’ve been following ocean-going crews, Vincent, aboard Outremer 51 Piment Rouge, will be sharing his transatlantic passage with us via his videos, which we’ll be relaying. Another special feature of this 2023 edition will be the large number of diesel cans strapped to the guardwires: in a context of very light winds, unusual for the season, the engines (authorized with a penalty for the Multihull category) are likely to be much in demand aboard many of the multihulls. After two weeks of seminars, meetings and safety inspections, the atmosphere on the docks was becoming truly electric during the last three days running up to the start. Studying the weather, stocking up on fresh supplies, washing fruit and vegetables - everyone realized that there was an ocean to cross... Some crew members are more Zen than others: the oldest sailor in the ARC, Joff Hutchinson, 89, declared: “I’ve been sailing for 82 years and I’ve always wanted to cross the Atlantic. Now that my sons have retired, there’s no better time”. The start was relaxed, with the fleet setting off in a light southerly breeze and glorious sunshine, guaranteeing a smooth start for everyone to get their sea legs. ► 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!

We all hit moments where life feels like it's standing still. You may feel stuck, unsure of what to do next, or like you’re just going through the motions. It’s a frustrating place to be, but remember, it’s also a temporary phase. The key is not to stay in that stuck feeling. Start by acknowledging your emotions. It’s okay to feel lost sometimes — it doesn’t mean you’ve failed. Once you allow yourself to feel, begin reflecting on what’s truly important to you. Reconnect with your goals, values, and passions. Next, break the situation down. Big changes can feel overwhelming, so focus on small, manageable steps that will lead you toward a clearer path. It’s about progress, not perfection. And finally, remember that you don’t have to do it alone. Seek support from friends, family, or a mentor who can offer perspective and guidance. Change starts within, but sometimes, it helps to talk it through with someone who gets it. Don’t give up. You’ve overcome obstacles before, and you have the strength to keep moving forward, no matter how stuck you feel right now. Take it one step at a time. . . #HealingJourney #GrowthMindset #KeepGoing #YouGotThis #SelfImprovement #MindsetMatters #EmotionalWellness #PersonalGrowth #LifePurpose #SmallStepsBigChanges #BreakThrough #SelfDiscovery #InnerStrength #FindYourWay #OneStepAtATime
