Boris Herrmann\u2019s Malizia 4 (GER) and Kojiro Shiraishi\u2019s DMG MORI Global One (JPN) \u2013 both launched in Lorient, France in recent weeks and currently in the early stages of commissioning by their respective teams \u2013 represent two very different design philosophies.<\/h4>\n<div class=\"richtext\">\n<p>First to hit the water in early June, DMG MORI Global One was conceived by the legendary Guillaume Verdier \u2013 famous not only for his success in the IMOCA world, but also for his contribution to the creation of the America\u2019s Cup class AC75 foiling monohull.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, the French designer looks to have incorporated some of the AC75 underwater profile into the new Japanese boat \u2013 most notably, a pronounced bustle running the length of its centreline.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a feature that has never been seen on an IMOCA before and \u2013 as Verdier explained \u2013 speaks volumes about just how different this boat is to the established IMOCA norm.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cMost IMOCA designs are U-shaped,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0he said.\u00a0<em>\u201cThis is so that when they heel over the hull\u2019s wetted surface is reduced. We decided to go to the other side of the line and create a boat that is designed to mostly stay upright.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Verdier described the new underwater hull shape as being akin to the central hull on a foiling multihull and said he expects the normal angle of heel for the boat to be around eight or nine degrees.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWe will displace the full volume of the boat on this bustle,\u201d<\/em>he said.\u00a0<em>\u201cThat\u2019s a wetted area equivalent to 70 to 75 per cent \u2013 a saving of around 20 square metres.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>According to Verdier, the knock-on effect of the low angle of heel and the fact that the boat will ride on the central bustle is a more comfortable ride for the crew as the boat skims over the waves.<\/p>\n<p>DMG MORI Sailing Team manager Jacques Cara\u00ebs described the new boat as\u00a0<em>\u201ca new page in IMOCA design-thinking\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cEverybody has been waiting to see this boat,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0he said.<em>\u00a0\u201cWe think it will be very stable and we are hoping that will mean it flies a little earlier too. We will have to wait a little while to find out.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Also in Lorient, last week, Team Malizia celebrated the launch of the Antoine Koch\/Finot-Conq-designed Malizia 4. If the new DMG MORI boat can be described as a revolution, then its German rival is very much about evolution.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8986\" style=\"width: 1040px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8986\" class=\"size-large wp-image-8986\" src=\"https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_Malizia_RP4_0612-1030x687.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1030\" height=\"687\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_Malizia_RP4_0612-1030x687.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_Malizia_RP4_0612-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_Malizia_RP4_0612-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_Malizia_RP4_0612-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_Malizia_RP4_0612-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_Malizia_RP4_0612-1500x1000.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_Malizia_RP4_0612-705x470.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-8986\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">06\/07\/26 &#8211; Lorient (FRA) &#8211; Malizia 4 launch day &#8211; \u00a9 Ricardo Pinto | Team Malizia<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Herrmann\u2019s new IMOCA is the second of three boats built as part of a unique three-way collaboration between the German skipper and France\u2019s Thomas Ruyant (TR Racing) and Lo\u00efs Berrehar (Banque Populaire). Ruyant\u2019s boat was launched in Lorient on June 19, with Berrehar\u2019s yacht scheduled to be ready in early 2027. All three boats share identical hull shapes but will differ internally to suit the ergonomic requirements of the three individual skippers.<\/p>\n<p>Herrmann described himself as being as happy as a child given a new toy, but was quick to point out that the launch of the new boat came at the end of a two-year period of intense work by everyone in the team.<\/p>\n<p>Asked about the differences between his new Koch boat and Shiraishi\u2019s Verdier design, Herrmann said the differences were vast.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThe design philosophies are very different,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0he said.\u00a0<em>\u201cTheir boat is large, wide, powerful, while our one is pointy and narrow. They are completely different: the Verdier boat has a bustle. If you put them next to each other, you would think they were two different classes.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Herrmann said he chose to work with Koch for his third IMOCA after seeing the impressive open-ocean performances of Ruyant and fellow French skipper Yoann Richomme in the 2024-25 Vend\u00e9e Globe. Particularly of interest was the way the Koch designs coped so well with the big waves of the Southern Ocean because of their chined bow sections.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s no surprise, then, to see Malizia 4 sport a pronounced double chine bow to help it in fast running downwind conditions. However, according to Team Malizia co-skipper Will Harris (GBR), the new German boat has been designed to be more of an all-rounder than the previous iteration.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWhat we have got is the next generation of IMOCA design. We are trying to keep that downwind speed and power with those big chines on the bow to help us get through the waves, but then also we&#8217;ve got more power in the boat, which is going to help us upwind in the medium and the light conditions.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing this story, Malizia 4 had sailed twice last week. The first outing was a seven-knot shakedown sail \u2013 which the team used to take a look at the new sail inventory \u2013 but the second sail a couple of days later saw the boat up and fully foiling on a flat sea in 12 knots of wind.<\/p>\n<p>The Malizia skipper said he could not be happier with how the first week had gone with the new boat.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-8990\" src=\"https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_MLZ_IMOCA_Malizia4_Launch_DSC05872-1030x687.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1030\" height=\"687\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_MLZ_IMOCA_Malizia4_Launch_DSC05872-1030x687.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_MLZ_IMOCA_Malizia4_Launch_DSC05872-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_MLZ_IMOCA_Malizia4_Launch_DSC05872-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_MLZ_IMOCA_Malizia4_Launch_DSC05872-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_MLZ_IMOCA_Malizia4_Launch_DSC05872-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_MLZ_IMOCA_Malizia4_Launch_DSC05872-1500x1000.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/260706_MLZ_IMOCA_Malizia4_Launch_DSC05872-705x470.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cEverything is working, so congratulations to the team and to the architect,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0he said.\u00a0<em>\u201cWe managed stable flight and the boat feels really nice on the helm.
