The Clipper Race welcomes people of all ages, nationalities and walks of life to take on the world’s most challenging oceans and become ocean racers.
An extraordinary 40,000-nautical-mile, eleven-month challenge in which non-professional sailors race around the globe on a fleet of matched racing yachts, the Clipper Race pushes endurance, teamwork, and sailing skills to the limit. It offers a rare chance for adventurers of all experience levels to experience the thrill of ocean racing.
As they race around the world, teams led by professional skippers and first mates face raging storms, towering waves, and scorching heat. It is relentless racing, 24 hours a day for up to 30 days non-stop across some of the world’s most unforgiving oceans.
You don’t need to be a sailor. You just need the spirit for adventure and the drive to push yourself further than you thought possible.
