Race to win


Join a Flying Fish race event if you are looking for a personal challenge and want to be part of a team competing in one of the world’s great sailing events.


All our race programmes include a period of training in spinnaker handling, crew roles, tactics and strategy before the event itself. We race to win but we always have fun too.


In the UK Cowes Week is the highlight of the sailing calendar and the oldest established regatta in the world. Today, Cowes Week is an enormous event with 40 different classes and up to 1,000 boats taking part.


The Fastnet Race is one of the world’s great offshore events. The 608 mile course starts in Cowes, rounds the Fastnet Rock in southern Ireland and finishes in Plymouth.


In Australia we love the ‘Hamo’ for its mix of beautiful courses around the picturesque Whitsundays, top quality race management and great shoreside partying - all in a superb tropical Queensland setting.

For a gentle introduction to long distance racing, join the annual Round The Island Race, starting at Cowes and making a circumnavigation of the Isle of Wight.


The Sydney Hobart is the Mount Everest of yacht racing. It is a test of seamanship, skill, tactics and endurance. The race itself starts in spectacular style in Sydney Harbour, and finishes with a great celebration in the historic port of Hobart.
