▶️ START OF MOWS POSTPONED TO APRIL ◀️

Due to the ongoing corona pandemic and the partial worsening of the situation in some countries, the planned World Cup in Palma (Princess Sophia Trophy) had to be moved to late summer. As a result and due to the claim of the MOWS organizers to ensure the health of all sailors, the decision was made to postpone the MOWS events to starting in April. Travel restrictions to France currently include an exemption for athletes training for the Olympics or for Olympic preparation events. Nevertheless the organizers stick to a detailed hygiene concept and are working in close coordination with all relevant authorities to ensure the health of everyone.


In order to continue to embed the series in the SOF Hyères, the races will be postponed to the following dates:

- MOWS 1: 09-11 April (Marseille to Hyères)
- World Cup Hyères: 17-24 April (Hyères)
- MOWS 2: 07-09 May (Hyères to Marseille)
- MOWS 3: 14-16 May (Marseille)

⚠ : MIXED OFFSHORE WORLD SERIES STARTS TEST RUN IN COOPERATION WITH TWO WORLD CUPS (SOF HYÈRES AND PRINCESS SOFIA PALMA WEEK) IN SPRING 2021 ⚠
-
Double handed mixed sailing has had an explosive growth story in recent months. This new discipline, in which a man and a woman compete together in a 30-foot (about 10-meter) one-design racing yacht in 36-42-hour long-distance or coastal races, is gaining popularity around the world. Not least because the World Sailing – the government body of the sport of sailing – would like to include this discipline in the Olympic portfolio for Paris 2024. The IOC is expected to give its final approval in the coming months.

The Mixed Offshore World Series (MOWS) was founded to take up this development path of the new Olympic discipline and to give the teams, national federations and relevant talent promoting yacht clubs an entry opportunity into this new discipline. “Our goal is to give global teams a long-term perspective for top-level one-design offshore sailing events with our new event format,” says Oliver Schwall, founder and initiator of MOWS. “We want to organize up to 18 Coastal Races per year in the Baltic Sea and the Mediterranean, and at the various stop-overs we also want to offer teams the additional opportunity to conduct individual training or even national qualifications.”

The MOWS have teamed up with the organizers of two well-known World Cups – the SOF Hyères (France) and the Princess Sofia Trophy in Palma (Spain) and within this partnership the organizers will start both – the Mixed Offshore World Series and offer the Mixed Offshore discipline within the two World Cups.
