The 3rd Normandy Channel Race, a Class40s French event who attracted 45.000 visitors in 2011, is expected to set sail on Sunday, September 2.

On this occasion, the racing yachts will be sailing from Caen to Fastnet and back, for a total of 1.000 miles.

The Class 40 was created by enthousiastic sailors who wanted to enjoy the open ocean without expensive and larger boats. It’s considered a perfect compromise between the Mini 6.50 class and bigger ones such as the 60-foot IMOCA class.

MaxSea is happy to be one of the official suppliers  and wishes favourable winds and good sailing to the fleet of 16 participants.
