The race took off yesterday from Istanbul, and they are first heading to Nice then Barcelona, Gibraltar and finishes at Brest, South France. Total lenght of the race is about 4000nm. We were on the water to watch them. Those boats should be a dream of every Hanse owner. We tried to find similarities between IMOCA boats and Hanse's and found out that they perform almost like Hanse's .
Anyway you can take a look at very nice pictures of IMOCA 60 boats from the following links.
