Celebrating 10 years of the MUSTO Performance Skiff

Happy 10th Birthday Musto Performance Skiff!

"The only true singlehanded skiff available. With spinnaker, wings and trapeze the MPS is the best performing sinlehanded trapeze boat." Ovington Boats.

"The Musto Performance Skiff is a single-handed sailing skiff with a length of 4.55m. It features a trapeze, asymmetrical spinnaker, wings and low weight and achieves speeds of over twenty knots which makes it one of the fastest single-handed sailing boats.

It was designed for the 2000 Olympic Class trials in Quiberon by Joachim Harpprecht where it won every race in the single-handed dinghy competition. Since then, the class has grown mainly in the UK and Europe. The racing circuit had up to seven nations participating at regattas in 2004.
It is a demanding boat for experienced dinghy sailors. At the time of the design, the concept of a single-handed skiff was first met with scepticism by many observers, very similar to the initial reaction after the introduction of the 49er in 1996. Since then other single-handed skiff classes such as the RS700 have developed, bringing this kind of boat closer to mainstream dinghy sailing."

BMW ORACLE Racing Wins the 33rd America's Cup

Video Copyright © BMW Oracle Racing. All Rights Reserved.
Taken from YouTube BMWORACLERacingTeam's Channel.

The second race of the 33rd America's Cup was a terrific spectacle, full of suspense and exciting sailing.
Alinghi 5 picked up a penalty just before the starting gun, and looked as if they were already beaten, but then the Alinghi boat went to the right hand side of the race course and gained when the wind shifted to the right. Despite the disastrous start,  Alinghi were leading for most of the upwind leg of the race, gaining 600 metres on the challengers. In this second race of the cup, experienced racing helmsman Loick Peyron taking control of Alinghi 5 instead of owner Ernesto Bertarelli.  It was very close for most of the race with leaders Alinghi 5 trying to escape from the chasing BMW Oracle boat, all the while knowing that they would still have the penalty to complete. However after a disasterous tack at the top mark, BMW Oracle Racing then took the lead for the downwind leg and from then on the race was won. BMW Oracle Oracle rapidly gaining speed, reaching up to 33 knots!, and finishing 5 minutes 26 seconds ahead to take the 33rd America's Cup with a 2-0 victory.

33rd America's Cup Finally Starts

After being delayed from starting on Monday and Wednesday, due to unfavourable wind conditons, yesterday saw challenger US team BMW Oracle Racing's monster trimaran emphatically beating the defender Alinghi 5 catamaran in the first race of the 33rd America's Cup. It's the best of three races, and if everything goes in the same way that race 1 did,  the ultimate victory could be decided tomorrow.

BMW Oracle is equipped with a revolutionary and incredibly powerful 68 metre long wing sail, and the trimaran was 1-3 knots faster on any point of sail, sailing higher upwind and lower downwind ultimately reaching speeds of up to 28 knots. BMW Oracle finished more than 3 kilometres ahead of Alinghi 5, who also incurred a right of way penalty. The finishing time margin was over 15 minutes.


Follow the 2nd race live from Valencia on the official America's Cup website tomorrow. The live video stream coverage and expert commentary is excellent.

Official Jacques Vabre Press Release:
"Spanish flagged 1876 came in to Puerto Limon in ninth place with Spain’s Pachi Rivero partnered by France’s Yves Parlier making a strong comeback in the last 36 hours. The pair lost more than 100 miles to Akena Verandas in recent days and fought back, gaining most of them back again. 

Out of another squally, difficult evening peppered by torrential heavy tropical rain showers, Sam Davies and Sidney Gavignet brought Artemis across the finish line to complete their Transat Jacques Vabre in tenth place. Davies said she and Gavignet have no regrets at all about their strategic choice to go south, a choice which cost them any chance of a top result. She simply said they did not know the boat well enough to venture towards the northern routing. She said there were small things which cost them, making one small choice to tack south too late saw them lose miles to Akéna Vérandas. Otherwise it was the wearying battles with technical failures which ground them down and contributed to lost miles and small mistakes. Nevertheless the hugely talented duo sailed a solid race, showing great drive, spirit and good humour even when the odds had long since stacked up against them." 


It has been a fascinating race to follow. The first week, especially, was absolutely gripping as the teams battled with the extreme weather. We congratulate all those teams that managed to complete the course.

W Hotels, Veolia Evironnement, Akena Verandas & Aviva all reached the finish line today. This leaves only 1876 and Artemis still en route.

It is W Hotels 5th place finish that has really been impressive today, as the following press release explains:

Press Release from Jacques Vabre:

" Finishing in fifth, bookending Foncia and Veolia Environnement, the Spanish duo of Pepe Ribes and Alex Pella sailed a remarkable race considering this was their first race together, and they are relative beginners in the IMOCA Open 60 Class.....


Fast learners. They had only sailed on W-Hotels for few days together before the start of this Transat Jacques Vabre Race. They had never raced two-handed together, and only learned the IMOCA Open 60 on the Istanbul Race in the summer.


But Pepe Ribes and Alex Pella pulled off the coup of the race when they clinched fifth place today by just four and a half minutes ahead of Roland Jourdain and Jean-Luc Nélias, getting the best of an exciting final tussle over the final 24 hours.


In squally, intermittent winds which prompted big gains and losses through the final hours of this scrap for fifth to eighth places, the intensity was more akin to an inshore regatta.


W-Hotels passed Veolia Environnement three times since yesterday, the final time just half a mile from the finishing line. Sportingly, Ribes was apologetic to the Veolia skipper when they docked in Peurto Limon, drenched from the torrential tropical rain.


Their margin was just four minutes and 16 seconds after over 5,500 miles of racing and just two hours less than 20 days of racing.


At one point, when all four emerged from Stealth mode this morning W-Hotels were over 5 miles behind Veolia Environnement.


The Spanish pair were especially quick downwind, hard driving in the trades and the Caribbean, learning quickly what makes the former Paprec-Virbac.  Pella, previously a top Mini 650 sailor, admitted they missed the option to push west with the trio who took the top three places, and that they made many small mistakes on their learning curve."  Source Jacques Vabre.

Latest Positions in Transat Jacques Vabre

IMOCA  

Four of the remaining 6  IMOCA Open 60’s which are now into the final the miles of the Transat Jacques Vabre race: Aviva, Akena, Veolia & W Hotels, are now all in stealth mode. It seems to be the fashion in this Transat for the boats to go in to Furtiv mode during the final approach to Costa Rica. This may have tactical advantages for the teams, but it is frustrating for the spectators/followers/supporters.

 Results are sourced from the Jacques Vabre website.

Offical Press Release from Jacques Vabre:



"It was a mightily relieved and intensely happy Marc Guillemot who won the hard fought Transat Jacques Vabre IMOCA Open 60 class when, along with co-skipper Charles Caudrelier they ended a mentally tortuous final 24 hours sailing over the finish line early this morning off Puerto Limon, Costa Rica.

Marc Guillemot and Charles Caudrelier brought Safran across the finish line in the early hours of Tuesday morning (local time) off Peurto Limon, Costa Rica to complete an emotional victory in the IMOCA Open 60 class in the Transat Jacques Vabre transatlantic race from Le Havre to Costa Rica.

Although the duo had battled through an horrendous Atlantic storm, during which they took the lead of the 14 boat IMOCA Open 60 class back on Thursday 12th November, the hard bitten skipper from La Trinité confirmed on the dockside that the worst part of their race was the final 24 hours.

Because both they and their nearest rivals Groupe Bel (Kito de Pavant and François Gabart), who were just 90 miles behind, had chosen to go in ‘stealth’ mode – during which their positions are no longer publically broadcast – he spent the final miles fighting through unpredictable light winds, squalls and shifting breezes as they closed to the Costa Rica coast through the night, being eaten up by worry that De Pavant and Gabart might still catch them with their ‘Laughing Cow’ logo’d, an identical design from VPLP/Verdier partnership.

“The most difficult time was today, every time were battling under the clouds, the storms, the rain, with no wind I was imagining Kito and François with their Laughing Cow running down the slopes with 25 knots of wind, whereas we were stuck with three or four knots. It was hyper hard for the moral, very stressful. Even up to an hour before the line we were still very anxious. But the main thing is that we got in in front.” Grinned a relieved Guillemot.

Behind Safran when they finished into Puerto Limon are double Vendée Globe winner Michel Desjoyeaux, who was lying fourth before he and co-skipper Jérémie Beyou went into stealth mode, and 2004-5 Vendée winner Vincent Riou who lies ninth of the 14 boats which started in Le Havre on Sunday November 8th."

Multi50 winners, Franck Yves Escoffier and Erwan Le Roux, co-skippers of Crêpes Whaou!, arrive in Cosat Rica to big crowds and fireworks... Congratulations!

SAFRAN Wins IMOCA Open 60 Class

Newsflash: " At 08:52:10hrs GMT/UTC (02:52:10hrs local time Tuesday 24th) after 15 days 19 hrs 22 mins 10 secs on course Safran co-skippered by France’s Marc Guillemot and Charles Caudrelier-Bénac crossed the finish line off Puerto Limon, Costa Rica to win the 14 boat IMOCA Open 60 Class in the Transat Jacques Vabre transatlantic race which started on Sunday 8th November from Le Havre. Safran sailed 5263 miles at an average speed of 12.46 knots."
