Globe 580 Transat Makes Waves with Record Run
Third running of the 2025 Globe 580 Transat: Thrills, Spills, and Plenty of High-Seas Shenanigans in record time! Woop Woop!
Solid tradewinds and solid ALMA GLobe 580s produced high daily averages, with the leader crossing 3000 miles from Rubicon Marina, Canaries to National Sailing Academy, Antigua, in 22 days and 5 hours, an average speed of 5.62kts and 135 miles a day! Not too bad for 12 little home built plywood shoe boxes about to take on the world.
Then 15 solo sailors will qualify to take the start of the world’s first ever McIntyre Mini Globe Race on February 23rd. YES ! you do not need an IMOCA to race solo around the world…it just takes a lot longer
