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.
