About

Are you ready to conquer the world's toughest oceans?

The Clipper Round the World Yacht Race is an adventure like no other. It's a record-breaking 40,000 nautical mile race around the world on a 70-foot ocean racing yacht, and the 2025-26 edition is set to kick off next summer.

We're on the lookout for the next crew of intrepid sailors, but with no previous sailing experience required, have you got what it takes?

The Clipper Race is an event for those eager to test their limits beyond belief. Over the 29 and 30 November, we're inviting people like you to head to Gunwharf Quays, Portsmouth to find out how they can take part in the next edition. Come and hear about it from someone who has been there, stared Mother Nature in the eye and taken all she can muster.

You will find out more about the selection process, training, the race, the fleet, stopovers, personal logistics and most importantly, the Race Crew. You'll either walk away inspired or scared. One thing you won't be is bored.

There's two presentations taking place over the two days, as well as the opportunity to get on board a Clipper 70 for a FREE boat tour and see for yourself where you could be living!
