PRB 4
|
The IMOCA 60 Class yacht Holcim - PRB originally launched as PRB (5) was designed by Guillaume Verdier and was launched in 2022, after being built by Carrington Boats in Hythe, England. [1] The boat was shipped to France for final fitout. [2] The hull was moulded for an Ocean Race project that was cancelled during the COVID-19 pandemic. The PRB team used the parts completed as a way to accelerate their build process and get back out on the water following the sinking of PRB 4. [3]
Crew: [4]
