ALL OCEAN RACE

The Ocean Race Europe 2025, The Ocean Race Atlantic 2026, and The Ocean Race 2027 represent the next three thrilling chapters in offshore sailing’s premier event. Beginning in August 2025, Europe’s “Connecting Europe” route challenges IMOCAs across the Baltic, North Sea, English Channel, Atlantic and Mediterranean, culminating in Montenegro portsmouth. In summer 2026, a historic, fully-crewed transatlantic sprint unfolds from New York to Barcelona, boasting a 50‑50 gender split and ocean science collaboration. And in early 2027, the legendary round‑the‑world event resumes from Alicante aboard IMOCA 60s.
