Welcome to Cayard Sailing.

Artemis Racing has challenged for the 34th America's Cup in San Francisco. As CEO, I will be very busy over the next three years working with our great team. We started to build the team during the summer of 2010 and officially entered our challenge on November 1, 2010. The team is owned by Torbjorn Tornqvist, a passionate sailor who regularly competes in the TP52 and RC44 Classes.

Artemis Racing is currently in the start up phase of the project; building the team personnel, planning and preparing for construction of our first AC72 catamaran and its hard wing sail. We are preparing to take delivery of our AC45 in March in New Zealand. The AC45, like its bigger sister, is a catamaran with hard wing sail. We will race the smaller AC45 in 2011 and early 2012 in the "World Series" while the teams prepare their America's Cup class yachts, the AC72.

To prepare for this multihull sailing, Artemis Racing has purchased an Extreme 40 and will be racing on the X40 Circuit this season. Terry Hutchinson is our helmsman and he has a strong crew with him.

Needless to say, we are very busy at Artemis Racing. This won't leave much time for any other projects so no TransPacs or Pacific Cups for a while.

I will continue to sail in the RC44 Class with the Katusha team. Even though my position as CEO won't see me sailing as much, I will keep writing updates for this site, probably even when I am not racing, to give you a flavor of the project.
