The MOD70 is a New One-Design Trimaran, 70 feet long. It is a new class and already 5 Boats are participating in their 1st International Sailing Race.

You can follow the progress of the Boats on Krys Ocean Race website, but ........

BETTER still..........

You  can Virtually SAIL alongside the 5 Trimarans at dazzling speeds in the same Race full of action in LiveSkipper virtual sailing simulator.


Registration is FREE and a short tutorial shows how to sail against the professionals. LiveSkipper follows the  same course, it uses the actual wind conditions and offers proper navigational tools to plan a good strategy given the wind forecasts. The  scheduler let you set Waypoints for the night, so it will not disturb your good nightsleep, only a little maybe :)
