We are pleased to announce that the quarantine on our crew in Subic Bay has now been lifted and they are able to leave the marina.

All crew have travel arranged home, with some already on their way. It is expected that all Clipper Race staff who have been overseeing the complex logistics involved will be travelling back to the UK by Friday 20 March.

We thank all crew, Skippers and First Mates for their resilience and patience during their quarantine and we look forward to seeing everyone again next year when the race resumes. We would also like to thank the wonderful staff at the Subic Bay Yacht Club for their support and courtesy extended to all of us during our time in the Philippines.
