The RORC Cowes Offshore Series continues with one of the true classics of the Royal Ocean Racing Club calendar, the Cowes Dinard St Malo Race. Starting from the Royal Yacht Squadron Line in Cowes on Friday 3 July, the fleet will race approximately 150 nautical miles across the English Channel to the historic walled city of St Malo. This famous offshore race is part of the seven race RORC Cowes Offshore Series, with the best five results to count across a season of competitive offshore racing from Cowes. The 2026 edition brings together a varied international fleet, from high performance yachts such as Johnny Vincent’s Volvo 70 Pace and James Neville’s Botin 52 Ino Veritas, to shorthanded specialists, proven IRC racers, multihulls and classic yachts including Pen Duick III, Quailo 3 and Xara. The race is also the opening contest of the 2026 IRC Double Handed National Championship, adding another layer of intensity to this historic cross Channel challenge.

Sometimes it's the kids who are the experts. They know how to tighten a tramp on a performance cat. Not a bad after school job to do
