Fort Charlotte, Antigua (February 19, 2024) – The 15th edition of the RORC Caribbean 600 had a south easterly breeze gusting up to 17 knots as 64 boats with over 500 sailors from all over the world took to the start today for the non-stop 600nm race around 11 Caribbean islands.
“It is always great to see the fleet all get away to a clear start,” commented RORC Race Director Steve Cole. “The RORC Race Team will be monitoring the fleet 24-7. All teams in the race will be greeted by the invaluable Caribbean 600 Volunteers with warm smiles and cold Carib beers. We wish all competitors a great race and look forward to seeing them all safely back in Antigua after they have finished.”
