Jessica Berthoud

Crew

Switzerland/New Zealand

A passionate sailor with a profile as versatile as it is specialized, Jessica Berthoud, at the age of 23, has built a unique career combining competitive foiling and technical expertise. Trained on flying multihulls—GC32, Flying Phantom, Nacra 17, 69F—she has also been a master sailmaker for four years, a dual skill set that is particularly valued in the world of competitive sailing.

European champion in 69F, and with a solid background in sailing, Jessica is now preparing to take on a new challenge: making her debut in offshore racing with the Switzerland Offshore Team.
"I grew up with The Ocean Race at home: my father and mother took part in it. Joining this project means discovering the open sea while continuing a family tradition. "

The youngest member of the team will embark on the second leg of The Ocean Race Europe, between Portsmouth and Cartagena, starting on August 17, as well as the fifth and final leg, between Genoa and Boka Bay.
