​​​
It is only 8 weeks before the Raid Extreme 2025. Are you still on the waiting list? Around 6 August we will ask around which boats will be sure to come. As soon as there are any vacancies, we will let you know.
Around the same time, we will update the documentation in the race pack.
Keep you posted!

5 July 2024 - Newcomers for 2025
​​
There will be quite a few newcomers this year.
For example Ginny with a Welsford Walkabout that she built herself, Marcel with his newly built Acorn skiff, Marlies with her brand new Creizic.
There will also be a couple of Oughtred designs and Drascombes getting their toes wet.
Others optimised their boats for the new year.
Hubert has upgraded his sail to the much bigger 'Minahouet' sail that Sebastiaan and Joost were using on their Silmarils.
And Koos will be bringing a fathead sail on a new carbon mast and will be adding a gennaker to avoid paddling the whole distance for a third time.
We are looking forward very much to see Burkhard with his new turbo-Skerry and to see Lieuwe bring his innovative Flerk Twa.
​
If you will be bringing a new boat, send us some pics and text and we will create a boat portrait!

5 July 2024 - Flerk Twa
​​
One of the new boats will be the innovative Flerk Twa built by Lieuwe during the last year and launched early 2025.
This brand new boat which debuted at the Brio race in May has a Ljungstrom rig which unfolds to 23m2 on the downwind legs.

We opened the registration page at sunrise on 9th February and you were keen to register.
First timer Diederik was the last to register so he is a very lucky person!
