Description
Distance (nm): 151
Over 100 years old, this is one of the oldest races in the RORC calendar with its origins in a pre-World War I race from Cowes to St Malo bay. The winner still receives the original trophy – the magnificent King Edward VII Cup, which dates from 1906. The race history makes this one of the most popular races in the calendar and a must-do race for all competitors.
The Yacht
An offshore race prepared Beneteau First 40.7, the most successful cruiser racer ever built. Complete with race and delivery sails and several spinnakers, the boat is fast, safe and easily sailed. Down below, we have all (most) mod cons and is very comfortable. We sail with two watches, so there is always an opportunity to get involved and when you are off watch – soak in the experience, sit back and enjoy the ride!
This is an adventurous sailing trip, on an offshore race prepared yacht – so be prepared for some fast and exciting sailing…
