Regatta

Races

- The Elliot 52 "Rafale" misses the "Uca" course record at the Pantaenius Rund Skagen race by 1 hour, 37 minutes and 33 seconds.  
- Weak winds ("Parker") off Hanstholm in the Skagerrak cost "Rafale" the chance to break the record despite a very fast second half of the race.  
- "Rafale" becomes First Ship Home; the overall ORC ranking and IDM offshore decisions now depend on the double scored long distance.

91st North Sea Week: Pantaenius Round Skagen record? Not to be broken!

- Light wind phases at the start of the race have greatly reduced the chances of favourites such as "Rafale" setting a new course record.
- Stormy, fast conditions are expected for the second half of the race, but this will increase the risk of a record and the boat load.
- The Pantaenius Rund Skagen race also decides the IDM Offshore, with larger yachts now having a particular advantage.

91st North Sea Week: Pantaenius Round Skagen - the royal race is underway

- 68 single and double-handed crews sailed the 5th Brassfahrt over around 95 nautical miles in light winds and with great spectator interest.
- Winners of their groups included "Intoxicated" (XL), "Jynx" (Small, fifth win in a row), "Whiteout" (Medium), "Sonic" (Large) and "Wildes Mädchen" (Mini).
- Special: encounter of the "Whiteout" with coastguard and Russian warship; around 200 participants, continuation with 6th Brassfahrt planned from 2025.

- The yacht "Rafale" wins the Capitell Cup Rund Helgoland as the fastest boat in light winds, but is only in eighth place according to the ORC classification.  
- After two races, Lars Hidde's "Pure" leads the overall IDM offshore rankings ahead of "Alexis" and "Oromocto", with "Hinden" close behind.  
- The North Sea Week combines top-class sport and family cruising; race director Uwe Wenzel draws a positive interim balance despite weak winds.

- The "Holy Flag of Heligoland" honours Christoph Mählmann's "Rarotonga" in 2024 for her exceptional triple performance at the start of the North Sea Week.
- The "Rarotonga" crew sailed three races in a row with two third and one fourth place and will receive free mooring in Heligoland for life without tourist tax.
- Light winds are expected for the Capitell Cup, while heavy conditions with gusts of up to 45 knots are forecast for the Pantaenius Rund Skagen race.

91st North Sea Week: "Holy Flag of Heligoland" for "Rarotonga"

- Garmin Cup: "Amuse-Bouche" wins ORC A just ahead of "Dockenhuden"; course shortened due to light wind, 20 boats at the start.  
- IDM Offshore: Sundowner light wind race goes to "Alexis" ahead of "Pure" and "Rarotonga"; large "Rafale" only in sixth place.  
- Feeder and island races: Several courses to Helgoland shortened, little wind also expected for Capitell-Cup Rund Helgoland.

91st North Sea Week: Sundowner "light" - first championship race at the finish line

- YACHT readers' trips accompany 2026 Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez on the Sea Cloud Spirit with two routes between Nice, Monte Carlo and Catania.  
- Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez has grown since 1981 from a fun regatta to a two-week event with maxis, modern and classic yachts and around 3,000 sailors.  
- The 138-metre-long Sea Cloud Spirit from 2021 offers 69 cabins, extensive on-board facilities and sets its 28 sails fully manually with 18 sailors.

- Merkelbach/Koy win the International German and Swiss Starboat Championship in icy, windy conditions off Radolfzell.
- 56 teams from eight nations sail in collisions, four mast breaks, hail and hypothermia; several crews have to retire.
- The successful duo with a long list of titles benefits from intensive preparation; the Starboat class is experiencing a boom and attracting young sailors.

- After their wedding, Lina Rixgens and Sverre Reinke are sailing as Team Rixgens Reinke Offshore Racing at the ORC Doublehanded World Championship in Scheveningen.
- In the short offshore opening race in Class C, they missed out on victory with "Gaia" behind "Waverider" by just 32 seconds after the calculated time.
- The long offshore race with light winds, a high rating and a duration of up to 60 hours is regarded as decisive for the awarding of medals, and the start was postponed.

ORC Doublehanded World Championship: On honeymoon at the World Championship

- In 2026, the 91st North Sea Week will serve as the framework for the German Offshore Sailing Championship with three rated races up to Rund Skagen.
- The IDM favourites include the JPK 10.50 "Hinden" for smaller boats and "Rafale", "Elida" and "Störtebeker" for the large yachts.
- A new feature is the "North Sea Week Line Honours Trophy" for the fastest yacht by time sailed, with double weighted long distance.

91st North Sea Week: Master sailors and North Sea lovers in their element

- The Brassfahrt is a single and double-handed regatta from Travemünde with around 90 seaworthy keel yachts and multihulls over 125 nautical miles.  
- The boats are categorised into five groups according to length, with additional awards for the fastest single-handed boats and a choice between ORC Club or Yardstick classification.  
- The regatta is growing internationally with participants from Poland and Denmark, offers a family atmosphere and once again attracts former winning crews.

Brass cruise: Overnight through the Bay of Lübeck at Whitsun

- 29 out of 47 double-handed crews finished the 500 nautical mile race, despite the cold, strong wind phases and almost 40 per cent cancellations.  
- "Red 2" took line honours just ahead of "Vineta"; overall ORC victory for Jonas Hallberg/Jonas Hiller on the JPK 10.50 "Hinden".  
- The Baltic 500 is regarded as a challenging offshore race with growing, partly international participation and many individual success stories.
