“Advens 1” in full fl ight
when branded “Linked Out” for Thomas Ruyant. Note the keel foil acting as second lifting surface.
an epic battle ensued. Advens 1 demonstrated her competitiveness once again, and Thomas Ruyant led the largest ever fl eet of IMOCAs into Guadeloupe.With Thomas’ new boat, Advens 2, almost complete, British skipper Sam Goodchild took over Advens 1 for the 2023 season and the upcoming 2024 Vendée Globe. Sam, whose successful career in Figaros, Class 40s and Ocean Fifty trimarans, had just come off the back of The Ocean Race where he raced on board the almost all-conquering Holcim/PRB before taking over Advens 1 for the rest of the IMOCA season. His
results, despite many newer designs hitting the water, were remarkable. Sam fi nished on the podium in every race in 2023 and was crowned the 2023 IMOCA Globe Series Champion. Despite being a 2018 design, Advens 1 remains one of the most competitive IMOCAs to this day. The boat was well designed by Verdier’s team
and the TRR internal design offi ce, extremely well built by the state-of-the-art composite boat yard Persico, and constantly developed, maintained and upgraded to the highest standards by one of the most professional teams in the industry . The most recent New York Vendée Transatlantic
Race saw Sam prove that he and the boat are seriously competitive together. His ability to push the boat and position himself in the last major event before this winter’s Vendée Globe makes this boat an attractive proposition for the future. Unfortunately, just a few days before the fi nish and whilst in the mix for third place, the boat was dismasted, and Sam had to retire. Now a brand-new mast and suit of sails are being fi tted and, with barely a hiccup, the boat will continue its build-up to the pinnacle event of the season in November. Advens
1 is for sale through Ancasta
Race Boats, with delivery after the next Vendée Globe and its post-circumnavigation refi t in Spring 2025. The boat is equipped with the highest-spec systems (inventory on application to Ancasta) and sailing time with the current and past skippers and all associated design and performance information is included. A supplementary package includes the remaining
part of the TRR racing stable in Lorient and all that it entails. With hangar/workshop and offi ce space, as well as elements of a complete management and shore crew, it effectively provides a fast and direct track to competitive racing in this special boat.

“Advens 1” partially enclosed cockpit ensures the skipper is still connected to the outdoors for “feel”, but still plenty of protection in bigger seas.
For a start-up or second-generation Vendée Globe project, this represents an incredible opportunity to climb the ladder quickly and effi ciently in this highly competitive environment.
