VELUX 5 OCEANS is the oldest, most established, continuously run, single-handed round the world yacht race. It has taken place every four years since 1982.
VELUX 5 OCEANS is the longest and toughest event for any individual in any sport. In 2006 the event gets tougher as the legs between ports is longer. The stopovers are fewer and more compact - with a shorter window of preparation for the next leg. And by the end of it the skippers will have sailed 30,000 miles of ocean alone, facing all the extremes that nature can throw at them... In partnership with Clipper Ventures Plc the organisers of the Velux 5 Oceans Race We were Honoured to be asked to design a Radio Controlled Yacht and to be associated with this amazing Race. Sir Robin Knox-Johnston, Tim Troy, and Graham Dalton Spent allot of time with us improving the performance of this model and we are proud to say that thanks to their help we have one hell of a fine model Now you can be part of the Thrill of this amazing challenge –, The Navigator is based around a Open 60 Racing yacht – the sleek lines and stunning performance of the model along with use of Carbon Fibre, make this model truly superb The Navigator makes a stunning model for exciting model boat sailing. She will thunder along in the slightest whisper of a breeze. She Sails up wind well and turns beautifully. Where the navigator comes into her own is in stronger winds.
