The 46th Rolex Middle Sea Race

The Rolex Middle Sea Race is a 606nm offshore classic. It is often mentioned in the same breath as the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race and the Rolex Fastnet Race as one of the ‘must do’ 600 milers. Featuring a circular route, two active volcanoes and a host of other islands, the course has a unique splendour not to be missed.
