Not Yachting. Freesailing. — The Gabart Experience on ORC 57

What happens when one of the world’s greatest sailors steps aboard a new-generation fast-cruising catamaran?

In this exclusive film, François Gabart and Virginie Gabart share their genuine experience sailing FreeWave, the ORC 57 #4 — a catamaran built for those who believe in freedom without excess.

Designed by Marc Lombard Yacht Design, the ORC 57 is not a yacht.

It’s a freedom machine: simple by nature, fast by design, and made for those who seek raw, essential adventure at sea.

From François’ perspective on performance, acceleration, and sensations, to Virginie’s insights on comfort, balance, and life on board during their round-the-world project*, this video reveals what Freesailing truly means.

This is not yachting. This is Freesailing.
