The Real Club Náutico de Torrevieja today presented the regatta that will be held from Thursday 29th January to Sunday 1st February.

When the fleet lines up next Sunday on Sydney Harbour for the annual Queen of the Waves race, it will continue the time-honoured race which was originally conducted in 1938.

Sunny skies, warm temperatures, and a steady 8-10 knots of breeze (a little lighter than forecasted), the stage was set for an exciting final day, expertly delivered by PRO Carol Ewing and her race management team.

The Eighth Horning Boat Show is to take place on Saturday 2nd May 2026 starting at 10.00am until 4.00pm.

When the crew of The Famous Project CIC crossed the starting line of the Jules Verne Trophy near Ushant on 28 November, they were acutely aware of the monumental record set in 2017 by the IDEC Sport maxi trimaran: 40 days and 23 hours.

Two new names are etched into the Bacardi winners circle: Harry Melges IV and Bruce Golison topped fleets totaling nearly 60 teams to earn their victories at Bacardi Winter Series Event No. 1 on Biscayne Bay.

A mild east south easterly wind greeted the sailors on this Sunday, almost as it was the previous weekend. Whilst the wind was predominantly F3 in strength it did vary between patches of soft F2 to pleasantly forceful F4 throughout the morning.

The fourth round of the Bough Beech Icicle Series proved to be another testing day for the race team, led on this occasion by Richard Bone.

The SE wind was ESE and down at 11 knots. The majority of the six starters chose the B rig. Roger Gibb was out to have the power to take the fleet apart with his A rig looking huge against the diminutive B rig.

Easterlies, apart from sea breezes, are relatively unusual on the east coast, and the wind for Sunday’s (25th January) Howth Yacht Club Dinghy Frostbites gave evidence to the saying about what’s seldom is wonderful.
