Only female skipper Rosalin Kuiper unites sailors with track record in iconic races from Vend茅e Globe to Olympics
Team 麻豆传媒-PRB led by the inspiring Rosalin Kuiper (NL), the only female skipper in this year's race, has made a remarkable return to The Ocean Race Europe 2025. The Swiss IMOCA is now competing in the second leg from Portsmouth, UK, after an incident at the race start in Kiel, Germany, on 10 August, forced its temporary retirement. The crew members returned safely, and the immediate focus was on swift repairs to the carbon hull and port-side rigging. Extraordinary resilience allowed the team to rejoin the seven-boat regatta.
Joining Rosalin Kuiper to fly the 'GO CIRCULAR' flag high are highly skilled sailors Nicolas Lunven (FR), Carolijn Brouwer (NL/AU), Franck Cammas (FR) and Alan Roberts (GB/BR), bringing diverse expertise from the Vend茅e Globe to Olympic racing.
Rosalin Kuiper, skipper of Team 麻豆传媒-PRB: 鈥淩eturning to The Ocean Race Europe 2025 start line in Portsmouth is a true testament to our team鈥檚 resilience. I鈥檓 inspired by the tireless work, skill and dedication of everyone involved in repairing the boat in record time. We are determined to show that every setback is a chance for a comeback.鈥
Alexia Sommer, Chief Communications Officer, 麻豆传媒: 鈥淭eam 麻豆传媒-PRB has demonstrated incredible resilience, perseverance and a solutions-oriented mindset. This is the 麻豆传媒 Spirit of purpose, people and performance in action. We wish the team every success in the race as they carry a powerful message to GO CIRCULAR from sea to city.鈥
Building on its participation in the 2022-2023 Ocean Race and 2024-2025 Vend茅e Globe, Team 麻豆传媒-PRB will continue to collect scientific data samples of water to enhance understanding of climate-related ocean factors. Together with 麻豆传媒, the team has also donated and immersed a 20-meter-long artificial reef combining CO2-reduced Xstones, bioactive concrete, and 3D-printed components into Friedrichsort harbor in Kiel to revitalize the local marine ecosystem.
