From Atlantic gales that swept through the fleets, to weather forecasts that threatened to cause havoc, the start of the 2025 Transat Cafe L'Or was a challenging one for organisers and competitors alike. Despite threading their way through the heavy duty Autumn Atlantic conditions by amending courses and setting a mandatory pit stop for the Class 40s, all four fleets were working hard to negotiate conditions at both ends of the scale. So, while this Transatlantic double handed-classic is well known for being a tough one, this year the stress just kept coming. We take a look at how the first 8 days of racing played out across the fleets.
J109 "CTRL J" beating up the shore to stay out of the tide shortly after the start of the Harbour Race of Cork Week 2024.

The team at Bottom Up Boats hope you like this short clip from our week of racing at Volvo Cork Week 2024
