Special 50th edition Rolex Fastnet Race to take place in 2023. A year from now the start gun will fire on what will be the most significant, historic edition of the world’s largest offshore yacht race. Setting sail from Cowes on Saturday 22nd July 2023 will be the 50th edition of the Royal Ocean Racing Club’s Rolex Fastnet Race. For a second consecutive occasion, this will finish in Cherbourg-en-Cotentin via a 695 nautical mile course via the Fastnet Rock. Because this is a special edition, complete with celebrations taking place on both sides of the Channel prior to the start and at the finish, it is expected to attract a record-sized fleet. The first race, then simply known as the ‘Ocean Race’ and held on a course from Ryde to Plymouth via the Fastnet Rock, took place in 1925 with seven starters. A dinner immediately after the finish resulted in the Ocean Racing Club being established with Lt Cmdr EG Martin, owner of the first race’s winner, Jolie Brise, appointed Commodore. #RolexFastnetRace #RORCracing #Rolex

Lo que más nos gusta de vivir a bordo de un velero, es la paz que sientes sobre todo cuando ves un atardecer en paz, sin nadie a tu alrededor, solo escuchando los sonidos que la madre naturaleza nos regala día a día.

Yep, the long awaited pilgrimage to Vass is just about complete, and this is being uploaded from airport departures on my way back home. I thought I’d make a quick video whilst on the airport transfer. A teaser if you will of what’s to come when I make the full video. #sailing #boating #yachtracing #yacht #boatracing #cruising #thesolent #yachting #vassiliki #wildwind #joyridertv
