Vestas 11th Hour Racing[1] was a Volvo Ocean 65 class yacht team competing in the 2017–2018 Volvo Ocean Race. It was named after 11th Hour Racing, a program of The Schmidt Family Foundation[2] and its then title sponsors: a wind turbine manufacturer Vestas Wind Systems A/S. After the COVID-19 pandemic disruption the team changed yacht class to IMOCA 60 and no longer had Vestas as a sponsor. It now competes in the 2023 The Ocean Race as 11th Hour Racing.
The team finished fifth in the 2017–18 Volvo Ocean Race and in the 2014–15 Volvo Ocean Race, when she was known as Team Alvimedica and skippered by Charlie Enright.[3]
Between the two races, Vestas 11th Hour Racing was extensively refitted along with the other Volvo Ocean 65's.[4][5]
