Five continents, one world title: 21 teams set for Offshore Double Handed World Championships
The Royal Ocean Racing Club (RORC), in collaboration with Cap-Regatta and supported by LGL and Jeanneau, will proudly host the 2025 Offshore Double Handed World Championships from 22 September to 1 October in Cowes, Isle of Wight, where 21 teams from five continents will compete for the world title.
This prestigious World Sailing-recognised event will pitch mixed-gender double-handed teams to compete in a demanding series of offshore races aboard equipment-supplied Sun Fast 30 One Design boats.
Set in the historic sailing town of Cowes—home to one of the Royal Ocean Racing Club’s iconic clubhouses—the championship promises to offer a world-class race format. The regatta features qualification races, a repechage, and a final series. Each crew will race without on-water assistance, showcasing both endurance and tactical precision.
Beyond the competition, the RORC’s legendary hospitality awaits. All competitors, as well as their family and friends, will receive a warm welcome at the RORC Cowes clubhouse.
