Cherbourg Race

RORC/JOG Cherbourg Race 

The RORC/JOG Cherbourg Race is one of the season’s most rewarding offshore challenges — a fast, tactical dash across the English Channel from the Solent to the historic French port of Cherbourg. With shifting tides, busy shipping lanes and open-water conditions, it’s the perfect step up for sailors ready to test themselves beyond the Solent, and a brilliant introduction to offshore racing.
