Profile

After setting her goal to compete in The Ocean Race seven years ago, Rosalin Kuiper has done everything to be ready for the toughest crewed sailing race. She has competed multiple times in iconic races like the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race, The Fastnet Race, Middle Sea Race and the Caribbean 600 and has worked with a multitude of sailing champions like Chris Nicholson, Stu Bannatyne und Xabi Fernandez.

During The Ocean Race Europe 2021 she sailed onboard the Volvo 65 AkzoNobel as a trimmer. She is now an experienced offshore sailor with expertise in various areas and has sailed over 55.000 miles – that’s like sailing around the world twice.
