Class 40 – Vixen Racing
Vixen Racing is a modified Class 40 from the design board of Guillaume Verdier. She was launched in 2008 as Desafio Cabo de Horno and won the Global Ocean Race. With a new carbon rig and bowsprit, modern electronics, 600L water ballast, and a clean systems layout. Vixen Racing is fast enough to punish sloppy technique and reward good calls.
