Kick off the RORC offshore season racing on Volvo 70 Telefonica Black.
4 Nights: 29 April - 03 May 2021
£450 per person
This race is more of a sprint than a marathon, with you covering between 110 and 160 nautical miles as you race from Cowes to Le Harve in France (via marks in the Channel).
You'll join us the day before the race to fit in some training and get to know your fellow crewmates. Then we'll head to Cowes for the main event, a day full of fantastic sailing. After the race, enjoy the short cruise back to Cowes.
Embark: Thursday 29th April (pm), Portsmouth, UK
Disembark: Monday 03rd May (pm), Portsmouth, UK
Arrive in at the yacht on Thursday night to meet and eat with the rest of your crew. We will then have a day of training on Friday in preparation for the next day. Then it’s an early start on Saturday to head to the start line off Cowes.
The first offshore race of the domestic season finishes in the second busiest port in France, Le Havre. Depending on the weather conditions, the race may include various marks along the way. It always provides a good shakedown and sets you up well for the season. Overlooking the finish line, the Société des Régates du Havre hosts the finish with great food and a warm welcome.
Weather and tide dependent, we may drop into Le Havre for some R&R before the delivery cruise back to your home port.
