Visiting the Transat-winning IMOCA Paprec Arkéa at One Brooklyn Marina!

But wait, where were all of the others? The website said several IMOCA racers had their designated slips here! Fortunately, some members of the Prysmian Group support team were around setting up fenders, so I asked them! It turns out most of the racers found the conditions and facilities at the other Brooklyn marina, Moonbeam Gateway, more suitable and moved there. According to MarineTraffic, Holcim, Maitre Coq, Bureau Vallee, Malizia, and Initiatives Coeur are all at Moonbeam, next to the old Floyd Bennett Field within Gateway National Recreation Area.

I wasn’t able to get there today, but I’m going to try on Sunday when we’re in the area.

Thanks, guys! Cool shirts!

Jean Le Cam approves of this post:

“oh I’m too old for stuffed animals” skill issue. sorry you can’t appreciate little creatures made to hang out with you, I on the other hand am full of joyous whimsy and therefore vastly superior.

Team Malizia's IMOCA race yacht is back in the water with a new set of foils || Sail-World

Spring has made its way to Lorient. The first flowers are blooming and the IMOCA racing boats are, just like the blossoms, gradually appearing, emerging one by one from their sheds after three months of winter refit. Yesterday, Team Malizia launched their Malizia - Seaexplorer and now she is back in her usual spot at La Base harbour. With a few adjustments and a new pair of foils, both the boat and team are ready to start the first training sessions and solo races of the year.
