STP Shipyard Palma fine tunes Didac Costa’s One Planet One Ocean for Vendée Globe

STP Shipyard Palma has welcomed Didac Costa’s One Planet One Ocean, an IMOCA Open 60’, due to set sail on 8th November 2020 in one of the toughest and most demanding competitions on the planet: the Vendée Globe.

During her stay at STP Shipyard Palma, various works will be carried out on the boat as a follow-up to the improvements made so far, which include the change of the motor shaft, adjustments to the rudder, details on the keel and mechanical parts of the joining between the boom and the mast.

Various nautical companies based in Mallorca are also collaborating in the fine tuning, such as Grupo Barco, SNIP, Cover Up, Testia, Sebastiá Sitjar and Akzonobel.

STP Shipyard Palma stated that it will “encourage companies to collaborate with this great adventurer” and will “begin with the countdown to the great departure on November 8th, 2020”.
