The final preparations for the Royal Escale Race 2023 are under way! With over 30 boats now registered the race to France from Sussex will undoubtedly be a success. SYC and SRF warmly ask any remaining skippers and crews to register for race as soon as possible.

Amendment to OSR Cat 3 regulation 3.29.13 - AIS

In order to make this year's race as inclusive as possible the race committee has taken the discussion to remove the requirement for a transmitting AIS, whilst it is still encouraged to have this capability it is no longer mandatory for race entry amending the entry requirements for all yachts.

Race tracking

Thanks to the very generous contribution of our sponsors the Ramus Family this years race will feature live race tracking provided by Yellow Bricks, this will allow competitors and spectators back home to follow the race in real time getting everyone closer to the action!
