LEGENDS REGATTA

The Ocean Race has been creating legends since 1973.

A total of 324 sailors took part in the first edition – all of them pioneers – and since then, thousands more have shown courage, sacrifice and skill to write their names in the history of the race.

Here we pay tribute to the heroes of The Ocean Race, the men and women who have made The Ocean Race great.
