New Sailing Academy in Saint-Martin: the Diam24od in the Spotlight
A New Dynamic in Saint-Martin: Launch of a Sailing Academy Dedicated to the Diam24od. At the heart of the project is a passionate sailor who chose this high-performance one-design trimaran to introduce fast sailing to a wider audience.
Why the Diam24 in Saint-Martin?
The founder, Miha Krumpak, explains:
“Sailing a Diam24od is no leisurely cruise. This boat is built for speed and precision — the same platform that powered the Tour Voile and helped train an incredible number of today’s top sailing champions. With steady trade winds, turquoise waters, and plenty of open space to accelerate, Saint-Martin is the perfect playground to unleash its full potential.”
His idea is simple: to offer both seasoned sailors and newcomers a unique experience that’s sporty, accessible, and set against one of the most stunning backdrops in the world.
An Academy Designed for All Profiles
The Sailing Academy isn’t just for seasoned racers. It’s open to a wide range of sailors, including:
– Dinghy or keelboat sailors looking to transfer their skills to a faster platform
– Multihull enthusiasts (F18, Tornado, etc.) curious to test the stability and power of a trimaran
– Absolute beginners discovering sailing for the first time on a modern, safe, and exhilarating boat
Whatever the background, everyone will find the right challenge, with no barriers to entry.
A Variety of Programs
The Academy will offer:
– Discovery outings to feel that first rush of acceleration
– Regular, structured training sessions to build skills
– Local regattas, including “stadium racing” in Grand Case Bay — a natural amphitheater that guarantees a spectacular show for both sailors and spectators onshore.
A Clear Vision: Building a Community
Behind the Academy lies a strong conviction: the Diam24od is not only thrilling to sail, it also brings people together.
“What I want to share is that adrenaline — the pure joy of sailing fast in a stunning setting. The Diam24od makes it possible to experience that as a team, sharing strong emotions. That’s what will grow the community.”
With this initiative, Saint-Martin is positioning itself not only as a key stop on the World Diam Tour Caribbean, but also as a development hub for the Class.
