Launched in 2011, with a comprehensive design update in 2019 and further optimisation since, ‘Canada Ocean Racing’ will make an ideal candidate for the 2028 Vendée Globe, either in her current daggerboard configuration or retro-fitted with foils.
Originally commissioned as ‘Acciona’, this was the 8th Open 60 designed by leading IMOCA designers Merfyn Owen & Allen Clarke and involved the most far-reaching research and development program of the time; including extensive CFD modelling, five 1/7th scale and a 1/3rd scale tank test model. She was also the first IMOCA 60 zero emissions racing yacht, designed to compete without any fossil fuels on board and was built by Southern Ocean Marine in New Zealand.

Owen Clarke developed a new keel and bulb in 2019, changed the ballast system so that it is optimal to the latest rule and have updated the rig plan to wing mast and deck spreader, all in readiness for fitting foils. Maintained by a professional team ‘Canada Ocean Racing’ presents like new and has a proven recent race pedigree with an overall win in the 2021 Ocean Race Europe when sailed as ‘Offshore Team Germany’.
Race prepared for the current IMOCA Globe Series, ‘Canada Ocean Racing’ is in great shape for the next series culminating in the 2028 Vendée Globe. We would recommend anyone aspiring to the next series takes a serious look at this well specified and proven IMOCA 60.
