Les Déferlantes: The pioneering project of a female sailing team in ocean racing gains prominence in the media

The Les Déferlantes project, the first female ocean sailing team, has captured the attention of multiple national and international media outlets thanks to its ambitious vision of promoting women’s leadership in this sport. This project was recently highlighted in media outlets such as the ABC newspaper, which titled its coverage “Les Déferlantes: the first female ocean racing team aims to make history.” The publication emphasizes the team’s impact on competitive sailing and its commitment to bringing women to the top in a traditionally male-dominated field.

Les Déferlantes’ objectives, which include two boats and an extensive racing program, are highlighted in Náutica Digital, the French digital outlet SeaSailSurf, and Palmesana. These mentions in both specialized and general media reflect the growing interest in the team, which not only inspires new generations of female sailors but also aims to compete at the highest level.

Aina Bauza participated in the Más de Uno radio program on Onda Cero Mallorca (interview starting at minute 30). This opportunity allowed her to share her solo experience across the Atlantic, discussing the challenges and achievements of sailing for women, as well as the impact of the documentary The Atlantic Record: 4,525 Miles Solo. This appearance on a national media outlet is a key opportunity to spotlight women’s roles in sailing and to promote both the project and its upcoming objectives, with the support of dedicated sponsors.
