2020 Vendée Globe preview pt1: Pip Hare and Paul Larsen's guide to the round-the-world racing fleet

Vendée Globe competitor and Yachting World contributor Pip Hare, together with Paul Larsen, the fastest man on water, take a look at all 33 boats which will be starting this year’s solo round-the-world race on November 8.

In part one they debate which boat is the oldest and most well travelled in the fleet, find out what happened to Ellen MacArthur’s old Kingfisher (and some of Alex Thomson’s former Hugo Boss racers), discuss how the new curved ‘C’ foils work compared to the ‘Dali’ generation, and share their pick of the fastest non-foiler in the fleet...
