Pachamama: Swiss TOP to TOP Global Climate Expedition
The first Swiss yacht to enter the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race, this boat is a comfortable cruising yacht sailing as part of the Top to Top Expedition, the first expedition using only nature’s force to cross the seven seas and reach the summit of the higher mountain on each continent. The boat is an example for the cruising world, showing what is possible with renewable technologies only. Pachamama is sailing under the patronage of the United Nations Environment Program.
