The Rolex Transatlantic Challenge 2005
New York, NY, USA
May 21 - June 12, 2005
|
|
|
|
| | |
The Rolex Transatlantic Challenge 2005 is for monohull sailboats 70 feet LOD (length on deck) and longer attempting to break the world' s oldest ocean-racing record, that of the three-masted schooner Atlantic. Organized by the New York Yacht Club, with the cooperation of the Royal Yacht Squadron, the 3,000-mile race starts in New York on May 21, 2005, and finishes off the Lizard in England, covering the same racecourse followed by the legendary Atlantic 100 years ago.
