GLY Rally
A range of rallies around the world
It was in 2021, at the initiative of the famous navigator Jimmy Cornell, that the idea was to propose to the owners of the sailboats of the group Grand Large Yachting a tour of the world sailing. More than 30 boats start in September 2021 for the very first edition: the World Odyssey 500. It is about celebrating the first sailing tour of the world by Magellan and El Cano. Since then, the GLY Rally range has expanded with several routes and departures.
The GLYWO 500, a world tour in 3 years
It was in September 2021 that the participants of the World Odyssey 500 took the start of the very first rally organized for owners Allures, Outremer, Garcia, Gunboat, RM and ORC.
"We are really happy about this adventure. We found friends for life in the rally, and free sailing also allows us to meet other crews, who do not participate in the Rally. It was important for us to keep this dose of freedom, because this is also what we came to look for with this journey. The balance is perfect for us".
"During the Transpac, every day a rally boat sends its poem in French or English on our common blog, it feeds this feeling of "GLYWO family" with thirteen nationalities represented. This is reassuring in the midst of this empty vastness, for there is always another boat not very far away that can help us."
"We are amazed by everything we see, the diversity of landscapes, the richness of the seabed, the cultures is such that we feel that every day that passes is different from the previous one. It's almost a return to childhood."

Future departures
Nordic Odyssey 24
From the Canary Islands to Norway through the Azores and Scotland, Nordic Odyssey 24 will surprise you with its breathtaking landscapes.
High sea, coastal navigation, canals or discovery of fjords, each stage will be a new experience.
This new route is far removed from the classic routes of the Atlantic, and each crew will be able to test changing conditions while enjoying the leadership and atmosphere offered by the rally.
World Odyssey 25
Three years, three oceans, more than 30,000 miles to travel, is the project of a life. The second edition of our world sailing tour will start in November 2025 from the Canary Islands with more than 40 sailboats, catamarans and monohulls. It is an exceptional opportunity to exceed your own limits thanks to the links and mutual help you will find within the fleet, relying on our teams.
