Vendée Globe 2020-2021

Today Friday, 5th March at 08.35.46 UTC, Ari Huusela on board STARK crossed the finish line of the 2020-21 Vendée Globe.

Our 4TFORTE sails on board with him and with Pip Hare Ocean Racing on MEDALLIA have spent a combined 212 days at sea, and sailed a total 57.099 nautical miles with ZERO FAILURES! Both skippers, actually, believe they could go around again with the same sails.

All the OneSails sailmakers worldwide (53 sail lofts in 41 countries) are happy and proud of this great achievement, and thank all the people whom, at any title, have been involved in making this adventure a huge success for OneSails and our 4T FORTE.

Congratulations Conrad!

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!

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.
