An extraordinary programme ! Today, it is with great joy that I announce this partnership with Mirabaud, giving the go-ahead to operations that will enable me to be at the starting line with Michèle in Barcelona on 31 December 2010, under the best condi- tions possible. One year later we will be in Le Havre, and finally, at the Sables d’Olonne in 2012 for the Vendée Globe. On the programme: one transatlantic, two round-the- world races, 200 days at sea and 90,000 nautical miles. Still, one might ask : why ? My answer is simple : after se- ven round-the-world races and over 360,000 nautical miles in my sailor’s log, my ambitions are intact and my thirst is as intense as ever ! Today, I embark on this three- year programme with enormous energy and enthusiasm. I am thrilled to be returning to sea on one of the Fabu- lous IMOCA Open 60 yachts and to complete a venture that I was forced to abandon in the southern seas during the last Vendée Globe.

  • Case Study “Sailrocket”: World's Fastest Sailboat Principal Designers: Aerotrope
    Case study “Sailrocket”: World’s Fastest Sailboat Principal Designers: Aerotrope Aerodynamic design and analysis using NewPan panel methods code CFRP/GRP structural design and analysis using Ansys FEA Boat at speed spot in Walvis Bay, Namibia Sailrocket photos © Helena Darvelid/ Sailrocket Aerotrope has been part of the Vestas Sailrocket team since the beginning in 2005. Our engineers designed the wingsail for VSR1 and VSR2, as well as its fuselage and the hydrofoil. For Vestas Sailrocket 2 we were principal designers, co‐developing several concepts and taking part in final selection. Sailrocket 2’s main innovation lies in the way in which the sail and keel elements are positioned so that there is virtually no overturning moment and no net vertical lift. The record breaking speeds were achieved when fences were added to the base cavitating hydrofoil during the sailing campaign November 2012. Aerotrope set about designing the new platform and rigid wing, and took on the re‐design of the foil after the first version did not produce the expected results. Our engineer Wang Feng wrote a performance prediction programme (PPP) that ensured we could avoid stability problems (such as the crashes and backflip of the first Sailrocket) while pushing for maximum speed. Our calculations confirmed that we should move VSRII’s aerodynamic centre behind the centre of gravity, which was not the case in Sailrocket I. With the new design, the point of becoming airborne was no longer a problem for the boat. Sailrocket 2 finally broke the outright world speed sailing record three times during its sailing campaign in Walvis Bay, Namibia, in November 2012.

  • An Investigation Into the Experiences Of
    LIFE AT THE EXTREME: AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE EXPERIENCES OF PROFESSIONAL SAILORS COMPETING IN A FULLY CREWED AROUND THE WORLD OCEAN RACE _______________________ A Dissertation Submitted to The Temple University Graduate Board ______________________ in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY _____________________ by Colin Guthrie May 2008 iii ABSTRACT LIFE AT THE EXTREME: AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE EXPERIENCES OF PROFESSIONAL SAILORS COMPETING IN A FULLY CREWED AROUND THE WORLD OCEAN RACE by Colin C. Guthrie Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, May, 2008 Major Advisor: Dr. Michael L. Sachs This research used a qualitative exploratory approach to investigate the experiences of professional sailors who competed in a fully crewed around-the-world race known as the 2005/06 Volvo Ocean Race (VOR). Specifically, the following areas were examined: (a) the various environmental, technical, and interpersonal demands that make the VOR an extreme sport, (b) the impact of these demands on the sailors’ performances, (c) the strategies used by the sailors to maintain high levels of performance, and (d) the sailors’ reasons for competing in the race. Participants were 15 professional sailors, ranging in age from 23-49 years ( M age = 35.9 years; SD = 7.4), who competed in the 2005/06 VOR. After receiving approval from the Temple University Institutional Review Board, the iv researcher recruited participants who were subsequently required to provide informed consent to participate in the study. Using a semi-structured interview format, face-to- face interviews were completed with three sailors in Miami, FL, and with nine sailors in Valencia, Spain (three interviews with individual participants, one interview with two participants, and a focus group with four participants).

Whether it’s GPS speed sailing, national or international slalom or Formula, to have a chance at winning you need to be fast. And to be fast, you need the best equipment, and that’s what NeilPryde does better than anyone else in the world. Our stuff is fast.” Jonathan Squires NeilPryde Windsurfing Division Manager 57 NeilPryde Racing is a relentless programme of research, development and innovation by the NeilPryde Design Center under the direction of Robert Stroj. It is a programme with a ‘no compromise’ approach to developing sails that offer the best possible performance, because, ultimately the difference is winning. NeilPryde’s race sails have remained the dominant force in windsurf racing for the past 17 years. With numerous World, Speed, PWA, Euro Cup and Continental Championship wins to their credit, and now also the outright World Speed Sailing Record of 49.09 knots, the RS: Racing sails have been the difference on the racecourse since their introduction in 2001. The NeilPryde development programme has been further extended and made more accessible with the introduction of the RS:X Olympic Programme in 2005 and the RS:Slalom “Real World Slalom Sail” in 2007 as well as the ongoing refinement of the ultimate speed machine – the “Speedseeker”. However, the benefits of the racing programme are not limited to those on the racecourse. The technology, ideas and concepts that are created and refined during the development process for race sails are ultimately applied to all of the sails in the NeilPryde range.
