Clipper Round The World Race
Saved by uncleflo on October 28th, 2019.
The Clipper Race is one of the biggest challenges of the natural world and an endurance test like no other. With no previous sailing experience necessary, it’s a record breaking 40,000 nautical mile race around the world on a 70-foot ocean racing yacht. The brainchild of Sir Robin Knox-Johnston, the first person to sail solo non-stop around the world, the event is now in its twelfth edition, the Clipper 2019-20 Race. Started from London on 1 September 2019, the fleet will complete its circumnavigation when it returns eleven months later, in August 2020. Divided into eight legs and between 13 and 16 individual races, you can choose to complete the full circumnavigation or select individual legs. It is the only race in the world where the organisers supply a fleet of eleven identical racing yachts, each with a fully qualified skipper and first mate to safely guide the crew. Normally the domain of seasoned pros, this supreme challenge is taken on by ordinary, everyday people. Having completed a rigorous training course, participants are suited and booted in the latest extreme protection gear to commence the race of their lives - an unparalleled challenge where taxi drivers rub shoulders with chief executives, vicars mix with housewives, students work alongside bankers, and engineers team up with rugby players. The sea does not distinguish between Olympians or novices. There is nowhere to hide - if Mother Nature throws down the gauntlet, you must be ready to face the same challenges as the pro racer. Navigate the Doldrums en route to South America, endure epic Southern Ocean storms, experience South African sunsets, face the mountainous seas of the North Pacific - and bond with an international crew creating lifelong memories before returning victorious.

The boats - Gitana : Offshore racing stable created by Baron Benjamin de Rothschild
Saved by uncleflo on October 28th, 2019.
The Gitana fleet evolves with every passing season and the various competitions within them. However, whether they have one, two or three hulls, the Edmond de Rothschild craft all have one thing in common: innovation and excellence. After a brief spell in the monohull and Vendée Globe universe for two seasons, together with the construction and fine-tuning of a latest generation 60-footer equipped with foils, the racing stable founded by Ariane and Benjamin de Rothschild is returning to its first love: the multihull. The Maxi Edmond de Rothschild - christened Gitana 17 – is joining the long Gitana line heralding a new era in the category of large oceanic multihulls. Indeed, with this boat, the team intends to fly around the world.
