The biennial Rolex Fastnet Race is one of sailing’s ultimate challenges. Over the 605 nautical mile course, crews face a severe test of their endurance and sailing prowess as they race across the English Channel and Celtic Sea, before turning at the mythical Fastnet Rock and heading back eastwards to the finish line in Plymouth. First held in 1925, and organized by the Royal Ocean Racing Cub ever since, the ocean classic has been supported by Rolex since 2001 as part of its enduring relationship with the sport of yachting that dates back more than six decades.

Dear Salty Sailor, While we love disconnecting from the world out at sea, having an internet connection can be quite useful. We've tried various options, including e-SIMs, local SIM cards, offshore satellite systems like Iridium GO, and Starlink. Each has its pros and cons, but our clear winner is Starlink. For a detailed review of Starlink, check out our website (link in bio). Stay Salty, Greta and Michael on Fortun
