Only a few weeks now until the crew arrive for this year’s edition of the Caribbean 600, run by the Royal Ocean Racing Club. The boat has been in Antigua for some time now, and will be itching to be launched. First up is a solid week of practice and tuning up – not just for this event, but to set us up for the years’s programme – RORC600; Les Voiles de St. Barth; Newport-Bermuda Ocean race; and finishing up the year with the Sydney-Hobart.
