ANARCHY SAILING & THE FASTNET
This will be our 7th Rolex Fastnet Race. Its addictive, probably why every time
it comes around we do it,
This one is special its the 50th Race and almost 100 years since the first race in 1925.
No customers just former crew who have raced with us on either
DINO VOLANTE. Sigma 33 2005
MARISCO MADNESS. Elan 37 2009
FIREBALL. First 40.7. 2015, 2017, 2019, 2021
.
It's the new finish line again and not everyone is happy about it but people are getting use to it. The race now ends in Cherbourg not Plymouth. A massive break with tradition and one that still causes heated conversations in the pubs and yacht clubs all around the country.
To be fair we weren't best pleased and COVID was in full swing last time which didn't help.
So no novices all experienced crew. We therefore won't do any training weekends, Just two qualifiers early in the season .
CERVANTES RACE Mayday Bank Holiday Weekend. Cowes to Le Havre
MYTH OF MALHAM End of May Bank Holiday. Cowes to Eddystone Lighthouse and back
This will give us the 300Nm of offshore racing each crew member needs to qualify.
You will also need to complete a RYA/ISAF Sea Survival course and a First Aid at Sea course.
We will provide you with one of our famous Team Shirts
