This is one of the most interesting offshore races I've followed since the last Vendee Globe. It will be an incredible achievement for any of the skippers to complete it. So far, the only one who hasn't encountered significant damage or failures is the leader, Charles Caudrelier (Gitana). Everyone else suffered setbacks due to some sort of damage. Three teams are currently at Cape Town for repairs. Armel on Banque Populaire was the first to stop early in the race. Thomas Coville of Sodebo was able to find a solution to his problem at sea if I understood him correctly. With a total of six appendages, four of which are in the water at any given time makes many targets for floating objects to hit. Add the insane speeds these yachts are capable of and it's almost inevitable something bad will occur to most of the teams, unfortunately. The race committee already anticipated this and allowed stopovers for repairs. SVR Lazartigue's damage is very severe. It's looking increasingly unlikely they will not resume the race with each passing day. If they do, it will be at reduced speeds and they've lost so much time already. I think they should retire to save the boat and send it back to France for a full repair job. It's an enormous disappointment to see this happen to them. They had completed a previous major repair to the yacht just before this race and arrived in Brest at the 11th hour only to have this happen to them after an amazing run in the Atlantic. Terrible turn of events.

Yes I believe Charles C on Gitana has now sailed further than anybody else in history on a fully-foiling ULTIM without breaking down! In previous Jules Verne attempts (crewed) on fully-foiling ULTIMs pretty much everybody has broken down before making it much further than Cape Town. And you’re right the SVR Lazartigue team must be completely gutted by their previous 11th hour repair, then doing so well, then another collision.

I do think Gitana could (easily) break the 24h distance record between the 17th and 21th January (24h distance above 800nm during several days) but the team strategy was probably to save the boat, to increase chances to finish the race. Above 35knots, foils can suffer from cavitation. It was too early in the race to take any risk of damaging the foils. During one video, Charles, the skipper said he was slowing down on purpose. The priority is to finish the race.

Living in Lorient France where most of these boats are based I see them very often when they are at the dock but they spend a lot of time in their buildings, out of sight, to be repaired afetr a race and above all, to be improved. When they are at the dock, you can go and touch them, not climb without authorization, it's impressiveto see the overall size and especialy the size of the mecanical parts like the hydraulic cylinder controlling the mast located in the floats which are at least 2 meters long.

@SailingTipsCa

Yes just taking a bit of a break from video production to catch up on a few other things related to my day job, house, vehicles etc. But I am planning some more content! I like the rigidity of the Farrier/Corsair folding mechanism and the fact that it relies entirely on solid components. The downside is that you can’t really keep a folded boat in the water for the long term without fouling the sides like you can a Dragonfly which keeps the floats upright. But the Dragonfly swing mechanism relies on lines and water stays which theoretically require a bit more maintenance. But everything in boating is a compromise!

I think you should mention that sailing and circumnavigating the globe in the Southern Ocean is alone the MOST DANGEROUS sailing you can do, I forget the name of the race but when monohull boats raced there it was not unusual for 1/2 the boats to break badly for one or more sailors to die and usually only 20% of those that started that race finished.

Pretty lumpy out there especially with wind against tide! We started with a double-reefed main and jib and were still hitting well into the teens of boat speed without any more good options to depower and still sail upwind. Plus we had a couple of new multihull sailors on board who are learning the boat and very easy for things to get out of hand when it’s so hectic. We were cold and soaked after the first hour with buckets of seawater pouring over us and the conditions forecast to worsen so we retired before we broke something or became hypothermic!

@SailingTipsCa
@SailingTipsCa 10 ай бұрын
Yes nonstop, like the Vendee Globe. They are not resupplied at sea, but carry all the food and fuel they need for the trip from the start. Batteries are typically charged with solar or the engine, but they don’t use much power because the only boat control that is electric is the autopilot that steers, while everything else is human powered. Waste is generally pumped overboard which is typically allowed more than 3-12 nautical miles from shore, and there isn’t much of that with only one person on board.

In Australia we saw people as solos, and part of a race, come adrift in the Indian Ocean. Down in the Roaring 40's they had to be rescued by our Navy. This exercise cost $3 million dollars, because no other craft could do it. Warnings were sent to all the Navies on Earth, about this foolhardiness. Now these adventurers must have their own Tenders who follow.

So it's finished now. None of them went round the world non-stop. And it really wasn't much of a race. Was it. I once sailed to Ireland with a very experienced ocean sailing skipper and he emphasized the trade-off between safety and speed in yacht design. These yachts are only sailable singlehanded because of all the external meteo and routing input, that enables them to avoid severe storms, and the advanced autopilots that keep them on track and enable the sailors to get some rest. The foils are super vulnerable to foreign object damage sailing across open ocean at 30 knots. Obviously if your boat disintegrates in the depths of the Southern Ocean far from land you will be very fortunate to be rescued by helicopter. Maybe these yachts are 'a bridge too far'.

Yes once SVR Lazartigue dropped out it became much less of a race. After that Charles C sailed quite conservatively to preserve the boat, and I suppose it paid off in some ways given that in previous Jules Verne attempts no fully-foiling boat made it much further than South Africa. So making it all the way around was an accomplishment despite being a fair bit off Francois Gabart's record pace. To be fair Francois was able to pick his weather window...

According to the World Sailing Speed Record Council a global circumnavigation requires that the vessel start from and finish at the same port, cross all meridians of longitude, cross the equator, and travel at least 21,600 nautical miles, which happens to be the circumference of the earth. There are land masses in the way that get in the way of an equatorial rounding, so they use a southern route. These vessels are all GPS tracked and there are exclusion zones to keep them from going too far south and into ice-filled waters.

@@SailingTipsCa Thanks for you reply. I suppose I have been naive in regard to this new hullshape by not realising that it is largely foreign to the thinking of designers who have learnt traditionional boat design. Also, this shape could only come about except that it is a multihull and multihulls haven't been around long enough in the Western design world to be fully explored. Multihulls benefit from being able to have inner and outer hulls dedicated to separate functions. And, though this has been explored to some degree with asymmetrical hull shapes, it hasn't reached it full potential. Though, this new hull doesn't need to asymmetrical above the keel/waterline, it is symmetrical below the w/l. Something of a hybred perhaps. To sum it up it could be described as a full keel design, with all its positive sea keeping abilities combined with high speed efficiency, not found with traditional full keel designs. I've come to the conclusion I will have to produce a vessel other than the 5m beach cats I've been using as proof of concept and go it alone in every aspect of design through to marketing. Cheers and thanks for you interest.
