The Rolex Fastnet Race 2025 | Alice Parker – Navigator on Bedouin

Crosbie Lorimer discusses with Alice Parker, the navigator on the Swan 53, Bedouin, the differences in navigation required for a cruiser/racer or a Grand Prix racer.

The Rolex Fastnet Race 2025 | Crosbie Lorimer brings you the latest from the dock in Cherbourg - Sunday July 27 @ 1600

Crosbie Lorimer brings you the latest from the dock in Cherbourg. Post Script: Apologies for the mixup in the leaderboard for the 100 footers. It should have been Black Jack leading from Leopard 3 and then SHK Scallywag and all within a three nautical mile radius of each other. David Griffith's Whisper is eighteen miles behind SHK Scallywag.

In the AC1s leader on line honours are NYYC entry Black Pearl, followed by HKYC's Beau Geste, RYSN Caro & Jolt 3 from the YCDM and these four are all within three nautical miles of each other.

Stay tuned for more.
