BARCELONA WORLD RACE, THE CHALLENGE 90 DAYS, 2 SAILORS AND THE OCEAN
The Barcelona World Race is the toughest challenge facing the Estrella Damm Sailing Team: 90 days of ocean sailing around the world that will push the team to its limits.
On 31 December 2010, the second Barcelona World Race will get under way, one of the toughest nautical competitions in the world, in which the participating teams must cover the 25,000 miles (47,500 kilometres) that span the Earth in approximately three months.
Organised by the FNOB (Foundation for Ocean Sailing of Barcelona) and sponsored by Estrella Damm, the BWR is an endless journey on which IMOCA Open 60 boats will compete, identical to those in the Vendée Globe and those used in the NY-BCN Transoceanic Sailing Record, crewed by just two sailors.
