Here’s a brief update on the latest publicly available information about the IMOCA 60 Acciona.
-
The yacht Acciona has a storied history within the IMOCA class, with ongoing evolution and refits over the years to stay competitive in high-performance offshore events. Recent references highlight Acciona’s continued relevance in the open-60 community and its involvement in foiling-era racing discussions, though exact current campaigns can vary by year.[2][3]

In the broader IMOCA Open 60 context, fleets in recent races have featured multiple foiling and non-foiling boats, with ongoing competition among top teams. Acciona’s early 2010s design legacy intersects with later updates to the class as teams push for speed and reliability.[6][2]

For the most precise, up-to-date details (current race status, results, and any new hull or foil configurations for Acciona), checking the latest official IMOCA news feed and the Acciona team press releases is recommended. They typically provide real-time position reports, technical updates, and skipper statements.[1][6]
