Highlights of what happened globally in the sport of sailing in the last 7 days.
A flotilla of spectator boats and a huge crowd in Marina Lanzarote witnessed the start of the 2023 RORC Transatlantic Race, which is supported by Calero Marinas, the International Maxi Association and the Yacht Club de France. In glorious conditions, the fleet got away to a clean downwind start, a mile from Marina Lanzarote.
This is the weekly Sailing Highlights show the January 13 2023 World on Water.
Meanwhile in Alicante Spain the first part of this edition of The Ocean Race was the In Port Race There are two classes of boats competing and they are not racing against each other. So there was two separate races, the first for the IMOCAs then, on a fading breeze, the old VO65’s.
We have a clip from the 11th Hours racing team in the first race.
One of the boats fighting for the lead in the Trans-Atlantic race is Giovanni Soldini in his Maserati, Mod 70 trimaran racing machine. Here is his exit from Lanzarote.
In the Americas Cup testing arena, INEOS Britannia’s T6 boat is now in full action mode in Palma. Helmsman Leigh McMillan,was at the wheel on Day 7. Here is his summery.
Here is our edited version of last Sunday’s The Ocean Race IMOCA In-Port Race in Alicante. Team Malizia (Germany) won the In-Port Race after a frenetic battle that saw four of the five IMOCAs hold the lead at some point during a highly unpredictable and nerve-wracking contest.
The 2023 Melges 15 Winter Series got underway on January 7 in Jensen Beach Florida. Hosted by Melges, the two-day event already had a record 70 boats registered.
With more than 140 sailors expected, the event marked the largest Class event to date!
In barely a breath of wind, Wind-Whisper Racing Team ghosted across the finishing line the VO65 In-Port Race Alicante by a comfortable margin.
The other five boats failed to finish inside the 15-minute time limit which started ticking the moment Wind-Whisper had slipped across the finish line.
The VO65’s are contesting only a small number of legs in the race as the IMOCAas are going the full way around the world with stops.
