For our part, we'll be on deck to track down the boats that will take you on long tacks and extensive planning in the bay or offshore, and to tell you stories about the sea and sailors that will open a door to the sea in your daily life.
And the 2024 program is not lacking in originality, with many new events. Starting on January 7 the first solo trimaran race around the world . While the Olympic sailors prepare their weapons over the winter, they will meet up in Marseilles in the summer to compete in the first Olympic sailing events on the Phocaean racecourse. From August to October, the America's Cup will be held in Barcelona for the first time on an AC75, with the return of a French team.
For those who don't like competition, they can also discover or rediscover traditional boats at La Rochelle to host its first event in June or Brest 2024, which marks the event's return to the port of Finistère.
