An amazing number of over 300 yachts registered for the 2015 Rolex Fastnet Race in first 24 minutes. The race will kick off on Sunday 16th August, starting from Cowes, Isle of Wight to Plymouth via the Fastnet Rock.
The 100-foot (30,47m) LOA monohull limit has been raised for the 2015 editions of the Rolex Fastnet Race as well as the Rolex Middle Sea Race. This will entice yachts over 100ft to compete.
