To start with following two days of intense competition on the Sea of Marmara, the 24th Bosphorus Cup concluded with the race on the Bosphorus Strait. The busy waterway is closed once a year to allow this impressive contest to take place, and as usual a sumptuous spectacle was laid on for both competitors and spectators. Racing in a 15 knot northerly winds, and starting from Kuruçeşme, the 55 boat fleet contested a looped course that went as far north as Anadolu Hiasari, and the impressive F S M Bridge, and south to Beşiktaş, with the finish line near Beşiktaş.
Hugo Cardon on his Figaro 3, Sarth'Atlantique, won the second leg of La Solitaire du Figaro Paprec. This young rookie managed to cover the distance in 4 days 2 hours 14 minutes and 29 seconds. He is ahead of Alexis Loison in Groupe Reel, winner of the first leg, and the formidable Charlotte Yven, on Skipper Macif 2023. In the provisional general classification, Alexis Loison strengthens his lead before the third and final leg.
The Ocean Race Europe 2025, came to a spectacular close in Montenegro’s Boka Bay with a dramatic coastal showdown that saw French, Paul Me-hat’s Biotherm put the icing on the cake and win again in the final coastal race in style. Team Paprec Arkéa, crossed in second to secure the overall runner-up spot on 40 points, with skipper Yoann Richomme praising his team’s consistency throughout the six-week race.
Here are the best bits on Leg 5.
With summery sunshine warming the dock at Lorient La Base, the skippers, exhausted by the two-day frenzy of manoeuvres, congratulated themselves on the diversity of the course in this 48H Azimut.
"Fun", "intense", "fantastic", "tortuous", "demanding"... there was certainly no shortage of adjectives to describe the 48 H and its 'Figaro leg' vibes. Tougher than ever, this 14th Défi Azimut-Lorient Agglomération required the skippers to dig incredibly deep to hold rank.
After a much needed stopover in Puerto Sherry, the Clipper Race fleet is back at sea! The teams set off on the YCPE Cup, to Punta del Este 🇺🇾. This stage brings the second half of the Atlantic Trade Winds - a test of tactics, patience, and teamwork. From navigating the Canaries to the unpredictable doldrums near the equator, crews will face wind holes, squalls, and soaring heat. Crossing the equator will be a huge milestone, marked by the legendary King Neptune ceremony - a rite of passage for every sailor.
Four days of close racing in Scarlino brought the Swan Tuscany Challenge to a spectacular conclusion. Sunshine, a mix of conditions, and the tightest of margins set the stage for a memorable regatta on the Tyrrhenian coast. Here is their Wrap video report.
