OCEAN CALLING
Race prepped and ready to compete in the 2024 edition of the Vendée Globe we are pleased to bring our much-loved Owen Clarke designed IMOCA 60 'Ocean Calling’ to market. With a complete refit in 2023 with new daggerboard configuration, deck plan revision, new running and standing rigging, new set of North sails, conversion to 2016-gauge ballast, installation of 2 new Madintec lines, new computer systems (2 PCs) and the lowering of the cockpit 30 cm to achieve headroom under the sprayhood and greater skipper protection. And in 2024 a new keel (stainless steel foil at AMPM, bulb at Irons Brothers, fairing at C3Technologie).
