Four professional crew including captain, first mate, navigator. Libertalia’s crew have competed in and finished all of the following races: Rolex Fastnet Race 2021 and 2023, RORC Transatlantic Race 2022, Drheam Cup 2022 and 2024.
Some previous experience of offshore racing is required. 30% of crew need to have completed the ISAF Offshore safety and sea survival course and we would strongly encourage all crew to complete the course.
The race starts off the Royal Yacht Squadron start line of Cowes on the Isle of Wight on the south coast of England. Leaving The Solent through The Needles Channel, the race follows the southern coastline of England westward down the English Channel, before rounding Land’s End. After crossing the Celtic Sea, the race rounds the Fastnet Rock off the southwest coast of Ireland. Returning on a largely reciprocal course, the race rounds the Isles of Scilly before finishing at Cherbourg.
