OneSails Leads the Fleet at the 2025 Optimist Worlds

Portorož, Slovenia
June 26 to July 6, 2025

The 2025 Optimist World Championship, hosted in the coastal town of Portorož, Slovenia, brought together the world’s top young sailors. OneSails emerged as the most dominant sailmaker in the fleet, powering 113 boats—more than any other brand.

The championship saw top performances from sailors using OneSails:

🥈 Mihael (Slovenia) – 2nd Overall

🥉 Karl (Denmark) – 3rd Overall

🥉 Margaux (Hong Kong) – 3rd Girl Overall

With light and inconsistent winds throughout the week, races were postponed, and sailors had to remain fully focused to take advantage of the few opportunities on the water. The weather conditions demanded extreme concentration, patience, and precision. In this context, the performance of the equipment made a decisive difference.

We interviewed the sailors to hear their thoughts on OneSails. They highlighted the power the sails provide even in light waves, combined with exceptional sensitivity that allows for precise control throughout the race. They also mentioned feeling noticeably faster compared to other competitors, along with the ability to point very high without losing performance.

OneSails continues to set the standard in youth sailing, proving that superior technology and design make all the difference when it matters most.

OneSails Leads the Fleet at the 2025 Optimist Worlds

This morning, just after 5 AM CET, Conrad Colman crossed the finish line of his second Vendée Globe, completing a grueling race across three oceans, rounding three legendary capes, and covering nearly 23,906 nautical miles of the theoretical course. 21st overall | 4th among non-foilers | Battling with the top 3 throughout the race and finishing just over 24 hours behind the first of them. He crossed the line only 13 minutes behind the legendary Jean Le Cam — an extraordinary achievement!

Congratulations Conrad!

The making of a Superyacht – The Series

Sailmaking isn’t just a craft—it’s a battle against the elements, a dance between precision and passion. Last year, One Sails and Onesails Palma threw themselves into an 8-part video series, chronicling the creation of five sails for the legendary Wally 100. This isn’t just any boat—it’s the pinnacle of performance cruisers, and building sails for it was a challenge that pushed us to our limits and reminded us why we do what we do.

OneSails takes on the challenge of the 2024 Vendée Globe

OneSails is proud to participate once again in the Vendée Globe, bringing a new generation of cutting-edge and sustainable sails to the race. Following the success of the 2020-2021 edition, OneSails is represented in this edition by Conrad Colman on MS Amlin and Arnaud Boissières on La Mie Caline, both equipped with the brand’s latest technologies. Colman, the New Zealand navigator, has chosen a full set of 4T Forte 525-R sails, designed to ensure high performance and minimal environmental impact, while Boissières, the French navigator, has opted for a FR0, an asymmetric fractional sail for downwind sailing built with the same technology.

Kuka 3 Overall ORC Winners at the Middle Sea Race 2024

Kuka 3, owned by Franco Niggeler, claimed a stunning victory at the 45th edition of the Middle Sea Race, securing both the ORC overall scoreboard and class win. This year’s race proved to be quite the challenge, with the fleet facing two brutal storms packing winds over 50 knots, interspersed with stretches of frustrating calm. A key factor in their success was the brand new full inventory of 4T FORTE Sails, which powered them through both the fierce gales and the windless lulls. On board, they had experienced OneSails sailors, including Samuele Nicoletti and Sandro Montefusco, whose expertise played a crucial role in managing the changing conditions.
