The Channel Race offers sailors an exciting and challenging experience, whether you’re looking to refine your existing skills or take on new learning opportunities. This race covers 110 to 160 nautical miles, navigating around the Isle of Wight and key marks in the Solent. It combines coastal and offshore elements that require a strategic mix of skill, endurance, and adaptability.

Ideal for both seasoned sailors and those eager to develop their racing skills, the Channel Race is renowned for its dynamic course. Competitors face varying wind patterns, tidal streams, and navigation challenges, all set against the scenic backdrop of the English Channel and the Isle of Wight.

We recommend you arrive the day/night before.

This is what inspired him to create a not for profit organisation that gives people the opportunities that normally allude them. An excellent problem solver

    Exceptional, complete, hard and demanding. A challenge that requires the capacity for suffering, the navigation is continuous without respites or stops, guard changes every 4 hours, warm bed. IT IS AN EXPERIENCE TO REPEAT after recovery
