MOD70 organizers confirm a May 2014 start for the next edition of the Krys Ocean Race and hope to entice more Americans to visit New York for the race’s finish from Brest, France.
Four MOD70s, including Yann Guichard’s Spindrift Racing, compete in the Route des Princes, a stage race over 3,045 nautical miles between Valencia and the Bay of Morlaix via Lisbon, Dublin-Dún Loaghaire, and Plymouth.
The MOD70 Spindrift capsized during the Route des Princes offshore race, shattering the mast and sending skipper Yann Guichard’s brother Jacques to the hospital with a broken pelvis.
A young roving reporter learns what will spook French sailors.
The MOD70 has attracted interest and spectators, and delivered on being a relatively safe yet fun multihull class. But the problem is that the sponsors are not able to turn the spending spigot tap on again, or at least not just yet.
The first MOD70 campaign sets up shop in the United States. Orion Racing, with Cam Lewis, plans to train in San Francisco this summer.
Offshore sailing legend Michel Desjoyeaux hopes an American team will soon take part in the MOD70 circuit.
Although they’ve been hovering under the radar of sailing fans, Multi One Design 70 trimarans could shine in the spotlight if given the chance. With the right media, better scheduling, and improved promotion, these incredibly fast boats could really take flight.

The Prologue of the Krys Ocean Race took five MOD 70 teams from Newport, R.I., to the Big Apple. Stève Ravussin’s _Race for Water _came out with the win.
