What to expect

The ARC is a “must-do” event for sailors worldwide, drawing over 200 boats and 1,200 participants each year to sail 2,700 nautical miles across the Atlantic, from Gran Canaria to Saint Lucia.

Originally created as a safe way to cross the Atlantic in company, it has evolved into the largest trans-ocean sailing event in the world. Following the classic trade wind route, the ARC offers ideal downwind sailing conditions for a true ocean adventure. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience — days filled with steady quartering winds, rolling Atlantic swells, scattered cumulus clouds, and sunsets on the bow.

With Vantanera in racing mode for the crossing, this is a bucket-list opportunity for those eager to combine the thrill of competition with a touch of comfort and luxury.
