Palanad 4 with Pablo Santurde wins the RORC Transatlantic Race 2026

The boat, owned by the Olivier Magre and patronized by its son Antoine Magre, completed the 3,000 nautical miles that separate Marina Lanzarote from English Harbour in Antigua with a real time of 8 days, 5 hours, 55 minutes and 50 seconds, signing an outstanding performance on one of the most demanding ocean tests on the international calendar (Tipulante18, photo Arthur Daniel)
The Royal Ocean Racing Club has confirmed to the French Mach 50 Palanad 4, which has counted the Pablo Santurde cantabre on its crew as the absolute winner in compensated time IRC of the RRC Transatlantic Race 2026, when still ships competing in the Atlantic and no one can beat their corrected record anymore.
Although several crews are still in a race, the excellent performance of the Palanad 4 in compensated time ensures mathematically its overall victory, confirming the soundness of the project and the excellent strategic reading of the French team throughout the Atlantic crossing.
This result is a major milestone for the Magre family and for the innovative Mach 50 project, which achieves an absolute victory in just its second great ocean race. Palanad 4 debuted in offshore competition at the Rolex Fastnet Race 2025, and just a year later it has managed to impose itself on the RORC Transatlantic Race, confirming the enormous potential of design and its competitiveness on long-distance routes. The victory reinforces the prestige of a test that unites Lanzarote and Antigua, and that each edition brings together some of the best crews and boats of the international offshore landscape.
