The 1993–94 Whitbread Round the World Race was the sixth edition of the around-the-world sailing event. The race was won by Grant Dalton the maxi 'New Zealand Endeavour'. As with prior races, the 1993-1994 Whitbread was run to "mixed class" rules. However a new purpose-built Whitbread boat—the W60 was introduced. As with previous years a handicap was applied to different boats based on their race rating. Some W60 competitors were not keen on running both Maxis and W60s together once it became evident some of the old Maxis were only as fast as the W60 class. Some W60 competitors wished to ban Maxis, however this was never realistic given the large investments the Maxi owners had made in the expectation of being able to race. There were also concerns over whether enough new W60 boats would b

  • La Whitbread Round the World Race 1993-94 fue la sexta edición de la vuelta al mundo a vela. Por primera vez se intentó introducir un solo tipo de embarcación en la competición, pero debido a la premura de tiempo, algunos equipos no pudieron construir nuevos barcos. Por tanto, la organización permitió competir tanto a los yates de la recién creada clase Whitbread 60 (W60) como a los antiguos de la clase Maxi. Esto provocó hubo numerosas protestas y fue la última edición en que compitieron yates de diferentes clases. El vencedor fue el "NZ Endeavour" patroneado por el neozelandés Grant Dalton. (es)

I likhet med tidigare år infördes ett handikapp på de olika båtar baserat på deras prestations betyg. Konkurrenterna hade inte alltför angelägenhet att köra både Maxis och W60. De två konkurrerande klasser kämpat hela med protest flaggor alltid vid start. Många deltagare ville ha den gamla Maxis förbjudna under detta lopp, men på grund av oro över om tillräckligt många nya båtar skulle vara redo (att inte tala om de stora investeringar Maxi ägare hade gjort under tidigare år), flera Maxis tilläts konkurrera på 1993 till 1994s tävling. Av de W60s skeppare nästan alla ansåg att Maxis var i en helt annan (sv)
