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 Vincent Riou, will sail the boat in the Vendee Globe. The co-skipper then was selected just for this race.
Michele Paret, 52, is the co-skipper of Temenos 2 and one of only 2 females in the BWR. Her background goes beyond sailing inclduing mountain biking and climbing. Sailing-wise she's sailed Volvo 60's, Maxi Cats and Open 60's.
