EASTER CHALLENGE | RORC

🗓️ 18th - 20th April 2025

💷 £500

📍 COWES

The RORC Easter Challenge is a unique RORC inshore regatta that offers crews the chance for some vital pre-season training and fine-tuning. The main highlight of the event (due to the relaxation of RRS41) is the availability of experienced coaches on the water to assist teams with getting up to speed.

This will be our second year at this event, last year was a cracking opportunity to upskill and we couldn’t let our Fastnet crews miss it this year! As such, this is part of our Fastnet campaign so will primarily be for our Fastnet teams, but limited spaces are available.
