Buy a limited edition Zodiac Vendée Globe 2024
At Orca, we have a soft spot for exceptional RIBs.
Some time ago, we announced that High Field was sponsoring the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, and offering a special limited series of their semi-rigid boats in the event's colors.
Today, it's Zodiac' s turn to be featured on our blog.
As a historic partner of the Vendée Globe, Zodiac is offering to reserve one of its 42 specially decorated boats for the 2024-2025 edition of this legendary race.
But before discovering the bargains available for sale, let's take a brief look at the history of this partnership ...
2008: The start of a historic collaboration
In 2008, Zodiac takes its first steps in the Vendée Globe by providing 60 Pro Open 650. This model, with a new console and bolster, represented the second generation of the Pro Open range. Reliability and performance were the hallmarks of this first collaboration, enabling skippers to sail in complete safety.
2012: Adapting to the changing face of racing
Four years later, in 2012, IMOCA boats (the boats entered in the Vendée Globe) are constantly evolving. Zodiac adapts and offers, in addition to the Pro Open 650 (but with a new float decoration), larger, higher-performance models: Pro 750, Pro 850 and N-ZO 700. This diversity enables sailors to choose the boat best suited to the weather conditions encountered during the race.
2024: A strong commitment for the next edition
For the 2024 Vendée Globe, Zodiac is providing 42 RIBs of various models: OPEN 6.5, Pro 7 and Pro 850. These boats, all from Zodiac's professional range, are renowned for their robustness handling and safety, and will be will be on display in the port of Les Sables d'Olonne for 1 month prior to the start of the Vendée Globe, from mid-October to mid-November 2024.
