Launched in 2019 for Alex Thomson as Hugo Boss, Alan Roura's currentIMOCA Hublot was a forerunner in ocean racing. Thought through and optimized to the extreme by the British skipper and the architectural firm VPLP Design, it has paved the way in a number of areas, from the fully enclosed cockpit, positioned at the foot of the mast, to the roof covered with solar panels and the living area, this yacht designed for the Vendée Globe benefited from meticulous construction by the British shipyard Carrington. We invite you to browse through the photos.
