RORC Caribbean 600

24 - 28 Feb 2025

The Event

The RORC Caribbean 600 has become an offshore racing classic, often mentioned in the same breath as the Rolex Fastnet, the Rolex Sydney – Hobart and Newport-Bermuda as a “must do” race.
The 600nm course ties the fleet in a knot around the magnificent leeward islands. Starting in Antigua it takes the fleet as far north as St Maarten and as far south as Guadaloupe, with all but one rounding mark being an island.
The RORC Caribbean 600 is a challenging offshore yacht race in idyllic sailing conditions with beautiful scenery at every turn.
The course is a real nautical challenge because of the interaction of local conditions in the different islands with the trade winds.
The RORC Caribbean 600 is without a doubt a must do for all offshore enthusiasts.

In 2023, the Nelsons Trophy was introduced ahead of the RORC Caribbean 600 offering 2 days of inshore racing and a race around Antigua ahead of the Caribbean 600.
