There are 9 boats starting the Barcelona World Race. As this is the first non stop double handed circumnavigation race there are 18 sailors. Generally there is a skipper and co-skipper. It is the skippers program and in a years time the skipper, such as J.P. Dick, will sail the boat in the Vendee Globe. The co-skipper then was selected just for this race.
Javier Sanso 38 will be making his first circumnaviagtion attempt on board Muta Madrilena. He has some Trans Atlantic experience on Open 60's and started but did not finish a Vendee Globe. In all he's done 18 Transats and sailed to Antarctica.
