Plymouth. Anyone who enjoys sailing and has completed 300 nautical
miles of offshore racing can compete in this challenging amateur
race which is guaranteed to be an unforgettable learning
experience.
Physically and mentally demanding, the complex course which
covers 608 miles is designed for individuals who are committed to
hard work and who like to be challenged. Following the Royal Ocean
Racing Club's guidelines, we will provide every member of your crew

and spinnaker handling to ISAF-approved safety training and
survival techniques. Our aim is to ensure that you and your team
have the confidence to handle all types of situations, thereby
enabling you to deal with unpredictable conditions and boosting
your team's chances of success.
In addition to practical professional training and guidance,
crews will also have the opportunity to discuss race rules and
useful tactics for when the going gets tough. Our first class race
training programme allows for plenty of time to practise and plan
strategies, meaning you can get as much out of this unique sailing
experience as possible.
