Olivier Roussey, skipper del Class40’ Obportus3 :
«satisfechos. una fantástica transat

diseño Kerr para Concise

Jason Ker, former Principle Designer for the Team Shosholoza America’s Cup challenge, has penned the Forty(1)Design to a brief from Tony Lawson’s UK-based Team Concise. In addition to complying with Class40 rules, the aim of the new boat to become a one design within the Class40, while at the same time bucking the trend of escalating costs.

With the 130th boat due to be launched this year, the Class40 represents one of the most successful ever genres of offshore racing yacht. Joining the fleet this year will be a new designer who has combined forces with an old team in a new initiative.

Vuelta al mundo en solitario en class40

el class40 nº108 trata (febrero 2013) de batir el record de la vuelta al mundo, china-china
Guo Chuan empezó la vela a los 48 años
la idea es acabar el periplo en 130 días
Déjà 100 jours sur l'eau, mardi 26 février 2013, pour le Class40 n°108, chinois, qui tente de faire le tour du monde sans escale et d'établir un 

s'est lancé ce défi pour promouvoir la voile dans son pays. L'homme, âgé de 48 ans, s'est mis tardivement à la voile mais il compte à son actif une Volvo Ocean Race en tant que Media Crew Member de l'équipe sino-irlandaise Green Dragon (2008-2009) et une transatlantique avec la Mini Transat 2011 (La Rochelle-Salvador de Bahia). Parti le 18 novembre 2012 de Qingdao, port qui avait abrité le plan d'eau des Jeux Olympiques de Pékin, le skipper prévoit un périple de 130 jours. Il lui reste un peu plus de 5000 milles nautiques à parcourir, sur les 21500 mn de son parcours. «A la découverte de la Class40 » vous proposera une série d'articles retraçant cette aventure, la semaine de l'annonce de son arrivée.

nous avons vu Guo Chuan rejoindre les derniers bateaux du Vendée Globe dans l'océan Pacifique en approche du Cap Horn. Il a réussi momentanément à s'intercaler entre Tanguy De Lamotte et Alessandro Di Benedetto. Ces deux derniers ont, malgré plusieurs avaries, réussi à remonter triomphalement le chenal des Sables d'Olonne. Un second tour du monde pour le skipper franco-sicilien de Team Plastique (104j 2h 34min 30 sec) qui a à son palmarès une circumnavigation en Mini (voilier de 6,50 mètres), et un premier pour le marin français (98j qui a animé pendant de nombreuses saisons la Class40. Grâce à leurs sponsors (Team Plastique et Initiatives Cœur), le grand public a pu suivre les retours de ces deux héros en direct en vidéo sur leurs sites respectifs. Pour tous les navigateurs, terminer le Vendée Globe, tour du monde en solitaire sans escale et sans assistance, représente déjà une victoire. Si François Gabart, le vainqueur de l'édition, détient le record de l'épreuve, Alessandro peut se prévaloir d'avoir réalisé le plus petit écart entre le premier et le dernier depuis la création de la course en 1989. Pour Tanguy De Lamotte, le défi sportif se conjugue avec l'action humanitaire en lien avec l'association Mécénat chirurgie cardiaque, qui a déjà financé les opérations de 16 enfants venus de pays défavorisés lors de la conférence de presse de l'arrivée, et qui se poursuit jusqu'au 30 avril 2013.

the lessons


So I am putting this in SA rather than in Ocean Anarchy, as I think it has some lessons for any of us who choose to go sailing

This past weekend, I was at the annual meeting for the Class 40. One of the agenda items was a debrief from a skipper whose boat was rolled on December 12th, in heavy seas during its delivery home from Mexico to France. The delivery skipper and two crew were rescued off the boat from where it sat 600 miles east northeast from Bermuda. The delivery skipper was also at the meeting and shared in the debrie
Make sure your delivery skipper knows the boat, and knows how to handle such situations.
If you expect bad weather, get in contact with a shore side party, let them know your plans and coordinate for extigent circumstances.
Make sure the rescue authorities have all your most recent numbers, and at least one of those contact numbers be for some one who is not going to be on the boat and also some one who knows your float plan
Any knife you have located near to your life raft to cut lashings needs to be located with the idea that you will be in the water at the transom. Ideally, it should be low on the stanchion, reachable by you in the water.
The raft should be easily accessible from in the water and at the transom. It won't do you any good kept below, or even on a deck location or locker that is farther forward in the cockpit.
A water proof VHF is critically important. And it should be kept charged and kept with the ditch bag.
Consideration should be given to locating an EPIRB at the stern, perhaps on a stanchion/
A stern transom escape hatch is critical. In this case it would have allowed them to reenter the inverted boat to go get the EPIRB had the boat never righted.
Having two forms of distress signaling was quite helpful. In this case, that was the Inmarsat Sat C as well as the EPIRB.
A handheld Irridium, kept in a sealed bag and in the ditch bag could allow for communications when all your fixed equipment is damaged or water logged. Program that Irridium with emergency numbers, because when it all goes pear shaped you may not have those numbers handy.
A hydraulic rod cutter can save you huge amounts of grief. Their hacksaw blades were not up to the task.
Keep your passports with your ditch bag
Keep your flares in a water tight box of some sort. None of their flares survived the soaking they got when the boat inverted.
If a boat is diverted to you, you have to leave when it arrives regardless of the conditions. You can't ask them to stand by. If they had it to do over again, they would have coordinated their rescue request so that the boat would be diverted after conditions had abated and become safer for a transfer.
If you end up in the water in the Atlantic in December with no hot toddy in your near term future, you want to be wearing a gumby survival suit. Not a dry suit and most definitely not foulies. They are required for Cat 0 and are not required for Cat 1, but perhaps you should consider it if you plan on doing a transat.

I hope this is helpful.... I know that I learned something from having heard the debrief. The seas that they were in when they got into trouble are seas I have seen, and the issues that they experienced are issues I easily could see experiencing. I am changing my own plans in response to their experience.
