Our goal is to compete in the RWYC Worldstar2026 and break the current singlehanded circumnavigation record of 137days.
On the way to the startline and around the world we will fundraise to support medical support for those who can not afford it and motivate people to follow their dreams!
Doctors of the World is active worldwide - in emergency aid in countries such as Syria or Ukraine as well as in development aid with longer-term projects. We primarily care for children and women in need, people without access to health care and are involved in refugee aid. In Germany we also offer medical care and advice to people without health insurance.
According to the WHO, 81% of adolescents and 27.5% of adults do not exercise or exercise too little. Diabetes, depression, cancer, and suicides are often the consequences. Therefore, Heidi and Karim Allouche decided to found the Thrive Foundation. Their goal is to get the world moving. The Thrive Foundation is a 100% non-profit foundation and a member of Swiss Foundations.

My life chanced after an sports accident 10 years ago. With the help of modern medic care I survived but was left blind on one eye. Ever since I try to live life to it´s fullest!
Now I set my eye on sailing singlehanded around the world. With this project I also want to give something back and help people who can not afford medical care.
With nearly 15 years of experience as a ship mechanic and over 55,000 nautical miles sailed as a skipper since the age of 16, I possess extensive maritime expertise. My journeys have taken me through the North and Baltic Seas, the North and South Atlantic, Norwegian waters north of the Arctic Circle, southern Antarctic regions up to 53 degrees south latitude, the Mediterranean, and the Irish Sea.
Since 2019, I've been a skipper with heart and soul, sailing yachts and catamarans throughout Europe. I pursue my passion for photography and filming during these adventures. In my primary profession, I work as a business consultant in energy and environmental management.
