In 2024, Solan became double-handed offshore world champions, racing in the Sunfast 30OD class in Lorient, France.

For 2025, the pair are setting their sights on success in the prestigious Transat Paprec race, which departs from Concarneau in France in April, finishing in St Barths.

Henri-Lloyd is the Official Technical Clothing partner for Team Solan Ocean Racing. For the coming 2025 season Maggie and Cal will be amongst the first to use the revolutionary new Dynamic range with 4-way panel stretch.

"In the 2024 Offshore Double Handed World Championships, the races are shorter and more "sprint" in style, which means there is inevitably a relatively high workload. Regular sail changes mean spending time at the front of the boat where you are constantly drenched by waves. Then with a tack or gybe I would be below deck moving the stack to the new high side which works up a decent sweat. Regular wardrobe changes are just not practical so you need kit that does it all: lightweight, dry, breathable and that works with you as you move. The Henri-Lloyd Dynamic kit has answered all of this and we can't wait for the coming season."
