CHAMPAGNE START FOR RORC TRANSATLANTIC RACE 🍾☀️ Sunday 9th January, Lanzarote: A flotilla of spectator boats and a huge crowd in Marina Lanzarote witnessed the start of the 2023 RORC Transatlantic Race. Supported by Calero Marinas, the International Maxi Association and the Yacht Club de France, the RORC Transatlantic Race started In glorious conditions, the fleet got away to a clean downwind start, a mile from Marina Lanzarote. The RORC fleet were in full view of spectators along the seafront of Arrecife, Lanzarote’s capital. As the boats rounded the turning mark outside Puerto Calero, well-wishes shouted encouragement from a pack of ribs and an armada of cruising boats. After passing under the volcanic mountains of the Los Ajaches National Park, the fleet raced through the narrow Strait of Bocaina which divides Lanzarote from Fuerteventura. The RORC fleet must leave Tenerife to port, before heading into the wide expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. The next mark of the course is 3,000 miles away across the Atlantic. Glover Island is just a few miles from the finish outside Camper & Nicholsons Port Louis Marina in Grenada. #RORCTransatlanticRace #RORCracing 📸 RORC / Sibok Studio / Twelve Video Productions
