Race one of the most intense regattas of the season, Fastnet 2007, aboard one of our race yachts...
Rolex Fastnet 2009
The infamous Rolex Fastnet Race is the highlight of the Royal Ocean Racing Club (RORC) calendar. It has earned the reputation as one of the most demanding offshore races and is widely considered one of the world’s classic ocean races.
The 608 mile race is a real test for skipper and crews with its tricky tidal currents and changeable weather conditions. The race attracts entrants from all around the globe with a diverse entry ranging from the fastest grand prix race yachts to small cruiser racer family boats.
Over the past three years Sailing Logic has enjoyed considerable success in the offshore racing with four yachts successfully completing the stormy Fastnet in 2007. Sailing Logic has won the best school boat trophy in the Fastnet and has enjoyed several podium positions and class wins for the past two Fastnet Races in addition to several other victories offshore. All this is a testimony to the quality of the tuition and structure of our racing campaigns.
Sailing Logic Racing is entering five teams in the Rolex Fastnet Race 2009. All the teams will train together and combine tactical/training briefings to maximise the facilities and structure we have implemented. Our teams will learn from each other to constructively improve the level of all the teams whilst utilising the diverse and comprehensive experience of all our staff.
Our training programme for the Fastnet is second to none, as endorsed by our consistently good results. There will be two training weekends and then four qualifying races which are very much a part of the training process. This far exceeds the minimum requirement of RORC.
We cater for a complete cross section of experience levels and personal requirements. The important thing is that everyone comes with an open mind, loads of enthusiasm, have a desire to do well and possess a great sense of humour.
