The RORC Transatlantic Race is one of the premier offshore sailing events, sending a fleet of racing yachts across the Atlantic Ocean from Lanzarote to Grenada. Organized by the Royal Ocean Racing Club, the race attracts a mix of professional teams, high-performance yachts, and experienced amateur sailors.
Covering approximately 3,000 nautical miles, the course tests navigation, endurance, and teamwork as competitors transition from Atlantic trade winds into Caribbean waters. The race often serves as an early-season benchmark for teams preparing for the Caribbean regatta circuit.
With its combination of long-distance ocean racing and a prestigious international fleet, the RORC Transatlantic Race stands as a key event in the global offshore sailing calendar and a gateway to the Caribbean racing season
