at Cowes, Isle of Wight (United Kingdom, British Isles)
The biennial Rolex Fastnet Race has been an established fixture on the ocean racing circuit since 1926. The 607-mile race is a test of strategy and skill with challenging tidal currents and changeable weather. The fleet starts off the renowned Royal Yacht Squadron in Cowes, races out the Solent and across the often tempestuous Celtic Sea to the Fastnet Rock, and returns on a reciprocal course to the finish off Plymouth.
