Between cycling, soccer (read: football), and tennis, sports have been enjoying a fine moment of late, and the sailing world is no exception.

With less than a month before the Royal Ocean Racing Club’s Round Britain and Ireland Race (start Sunday 9 August), the fleet is taking shape. So far, 30 teams from 11 nations and over 140 sailors will take on the 1800nm non-stop race.

Italian Challenger Luna Rossa has put in three good sailing days, in moderate to fresh breezes off the team base in Cagliari, Sardinia. The team continues to consolidate and build momentum towards the America’s Cup Match in 12 months.

May 14, 2026 may well have been when the fighter was ‘thrown’ off the front of the carrier, as it were. Aviator saluted the Shooter, who then tapped the deck, and a couple of seconds later you disappear over the bow, only to climb back out into free air.

With just one week to go until the first racing begins at the RS Games 2026, sailors across Europe are busy packing, prepping and getting ready for the biggest celebration of RS Sailing at Travemünder Woche, 16-26 July 2026.

A healthy fleet of ten Supernovas including five visiting boats from Castle Semple SC, arrived at Port Edgar and peered into a dense East Coast Haar obscuring any views of the three bridges.
