30,000 nautical miles. Three years. An unforgettable experience. Are you ready? 

Some journeys stay dreams forever. Others, we choose to make reality. The World Odyssey — a global rally organized by Grand Large Yachting — is one of those once-in-a-lifetime adventures that changes everything. 

After an emotion-filled first edition and with the second edition setting sail in November 2025, pre-registrations for the 2027 edition are now open! 

A PROGRAM OPEN TO ALL WHO LOVE TO SAIL AND EXPLORE 

The World Odyssey offers: 

  • Three years of offshore cruising 
  • Three oceans to cross 
  • Over 30,000 nautical miles of discovery, connection, and personal challenge 
  • A close-knit community, strong technical support, and a safe, well-organized sailing plan 

Two routes are available: 

  • The tropical route follows the trade winds 
  • The southern route takes you through the Strait of Magellan and Patagonia 

The two fleets will reunite in Tahiti, from where they’ll sail the remainder of the journey together.

TESTIMONIAL: “3 YEARS AROUND THE WORLD ABOARD OUR ALLURES 51.9” 

Sailing aboard Fou de Bassan, their Allures 51.9, Véronique and Dominique circumnavigated the globe with their family: 

“We chose this boat for its strength, autonomy, and ability to take us anywhere. It never let us down, even in the most remote places. At every stop, it turned heads. But most importantly, it allowed us to live our dream — together.” 

Three years later, Dominique adds: 

“I’d choose the same boat again! It’s incredibly comfortable, safe, and easier to handle than a catamaran — especially during long crossings or in harbors.”
