This race is a key event for skippers of the Mini 6.50 class supported by Sames. At Sames, we are committed to sustainability and environmental protection. Sponsoring Ramon Ribera in this regatta reflects our support for sailing, an eco-friendly form of marine transport. Course and Proceedings The regatta starts in Les Sables d'Olonne. Competitors sail to Horta, on the island of Faial in the Azores archipelago, before returning to Les Sables d'Olonne. The course covers approximately 2540 nautical miles and is divided into two stages: 1. **Stage 1: Les Sables d'Olonne to Horta** - Skippers cover around 1270 nautical miles, facing the varied conditions of the North Atlantic. 2. **Stage 2: Horta to Les Sables d'Olonne** - After a short rest and possible repairs in Horta, sailors set off again for another 1270 nautical miles journey back to the Vendée coast. Boats and Participants The regatta is open to Mini 6.50 class boats, which are 6.50-meter monohull sailboats. These boats are known for their small size, lightness, and high speeds, making the race particularly demanding and technical. Participants are solo skippers. The regatta attracts sailors from various nationalities, including professional mariners and passionate amateurs eager to take on the Atlantic. Challenges and Stakes The regatta presents numerous challenges: - **Weather Conditions**: Skippers must navigate through often challenging weather conditions, including storms and strong winds. - **Navigation and Strategy**: The race requires excellent navigation and strategic skills to optimize trajectories and performance. - **Solitude and Resilience**: For solo participants, managing solitude and fatigue is crucial. They must remain vigilant and performant throughout the crossing. Importance of the Race The Les Sables d'Olonne - The Azores regatta is an important milestone in the career of Mini class skippers. It often serves as preparation for longer and more demanding races, such as the Mini Transat. Moreover, it promotes solo sailing and highlights the skill and determination of sailors.
