Entry List
“Project WORLDSTAR”
The Royal Western Yacht Club was the very first club to introduce short handed and fully crewed offshore and oceanic racing. The corinthian approach to revive the Whitbread Round the World Race several years ago has since been a successful event as with the first solo Golden Globe Race (GGR) being such a well represented format at the corinthian level.
We see an opening.
The RWYC have developed the WorldSTAR to appeal to the adventurer who wishes to complete a circumnavigation in their own boat, rating on IRC or non-rated, with the only main restriction being the boat must be between 35-60ft. The entry can be solo or double handed, and will align with the OSR Cat 0 regulations.
It is our intention to help as many sailors with the required experience to achieve their dream at a reasonable level of investment with the confidence of knowing that one of the worlds most experienced oceanic yacht clubs is with them in their quest to concor their ‘Everest’.
