100 DAYS TO GO BEFORE THE 2022 CLASS40 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP

CLASS40


ALREADY 10 PARTICIPANTS 100 DAYS BEFORE THE EVENT AND ALREADY AN INTERESTING LINE-UP!

If more than twenty crews are expected to take part in this Class40 World Championship. Be aware that there are already well-known skippers of the Class40 that will participate in the sporting event, including many new boats with: Antoine Carpentier (winner of the 2021 Transat Jacques Vabre in Class40) on Redman (n°161), Ian Lipinski (winner of the 2019 Transat Jacques Vabre and winner of the 2020 Drheam Cup) on Crédit Mutuel (n°158) Nicolas d’Estais on Happyvore (n°167), Hervé Thomas on Blanc Bleu (n°149), Clara Fortin on Randstad – Ausy (n°155), Matthieu Perraut on Inter Invest (n°175), Amélie Grassi on La Boulangère Bio (n°170), Kéni Piperol on Captain Alternance (n°174), Franz Bouvet on Yoda (n°65), Marc Lepesqueux on Extrem (n°140)… A line-up that promises to be – already – of high level and that will allow to see the potential – as crewed – of some boats recently launched before the big single-handed event of the Route du Rhum – Destination Guadeloupe. It is always rewarding to add the title of 2022 Class40 World Champion to one’s list of successes!

A 24-HOUR RACE AND COASTAL SAILING REGATTAS…
