The Route du Rhum Race, held every 4 years, has always been a major multihull highlight - see our inset tribute to Mike Birch. There are three multihull classes: the Ultims, the Ocean Fifty and the Rhum Multi, with three other classes dedicated to monohulls. As all the competitors cross the start line in Saint-Malo, France, at the same time, it is of course tempting to take the count as they cross the finish line off Pointe-à-Pitre, having gone around Guadeloupe by the north and west coasts.
