Mini Transat 2031 – Crossing the Atlantic single-handed
The Mini Transat is the entry point to single-handed offshore racing, sailed on 6.50 m monohulls. It is the first step towards bigger races such as the Solitaire du Figaro, the Route du Rhum and, above all, the Vendée Globe.
The adventure starts now.
The Mini Transat
A legendary two-stage race across the Atlantic, sailed on high-tech 6.50 m racing yachts since 1977.

Three commitments
Performance
A Maxi 6.50 designed by David Raison, winner of the last three Mini Transats in the production class (2021, 2023, 2025), and the Lorient Grand Large Mini 6.50 training centre, in the heart of Sailing Valley.
Ecology
Sailing the boat home instead of shipping it by cargo (about 8 t CO2e and nearly €10,000 per boat), with a record attempt from Guadeloupe to Lorient. Current reference: 18 days.
Charity
Treated for leukaemia from the age of 14 months, I want to carry the colours of charities that fund research and support sick children, and take them sailing.
