The IMOCA 60 Class yacht Estrella Damm was designed by Farr Yacht Design[1] and launched in the 2007 after being built by Offshore Challenges who are not a boatbuilder (they run campaigns and events and were responsible for supporting Ellen McArthur) but brought in specialist to build the boat in Cowes on the Isle of Wight in England.[2] This racing yacht is not to be confused with Estrella Damm 2, which competed in the 2010 Barcelona World Race.
