In short, the boat is of noble birth because, from her very first tacks, she demonstrated formidable potential coupled with remarkable versatility while under the colours of Team Apiva. These performances were confirmed during the Vendée Globe 2020-2021 when, despite damage to the foil casing on her port side in the Southern Ocean, Charlie Dalin took line honours in Les Sables d’Olonne, ultimately ranking second behind Yannick Bestaven. Winner of the Rolex Fastnet, then second in the Transat Jacques Vabre with Paul Meilhat in 2021, helmed by Charlie Dalin in 2022 this boat proved to be a formidable competitor.
