About the regatta

fastnet 2013

The Rolex Fastnet Race is the legendary 600 mile offshore race between England and Ireland, and it is the goal of every serious racer in the world to compete and even more so to win. Fastnet is one of the most difficult and difficult offshore races on the planet, if not the most difficult, since 1925 it has been hosted by one of the oldest and most famous yachting clubs in the UK - the Royal Ocean Racing Club (RORC), the Royal Ocean Racing Club.

The Fastnet race starts in the Solent (Cowes, England) and goes to the Fastnet Rock in the Irish Sea, and then back to Plymouth (England), non-stop. The harsh weather conditions prevailing in this northern waters force yachtsmen to give their all to the limit of physical and emotional possibilities ... and then even more! The race takes place every 2 years, the next one will take place in 2013, a powerful racing yacht is launched from Kabestan Reflex 38, with a serious set of racing sails.

Capstan invites you to go through a thorough preparatory program and take part in this race. We plan to enter the race solely with one goal - to win. Based on this, we invite you to take part in a long-term project consisting of 4 offshore training races of the Royal Ocean Racing Club, sea survival courses, first aid and racing training mandatory for all team members. This program will make us a real race car capable of performing well in the 2013 Fastnet race.

The format of the Kabestan-Fastnet project is absolutely non-passenger. Experience is desirable, you must be prepared for physical labor and moral stress. The Fastnet 2013 Preparatory Program is a serious offshore program and will result in certain inconveniences such as lack of sleep, fatigue, etc.

In 2013 the team will need to meet in England 5 times for offshore racing and training. Such a number of trainings and courses is due to the mandatory requirements of the organizers of the race, the Royal Ocean Racing Club. Crew members must complete a certain number of miles, offshore races and courses in order to be eligible for a Fastnet race.

Also, we want to emphasize that this is not a charter. A team will work in a team, that is, you, and our result directly depends on this work. The roles will be distributed as the team is formed and according to the results of offshore races.

The total number of miles earned while participating in the project is about 1500, about 20 days on board.

We drove off another RTIR, of course it was fun this time!

Code name - Decadent Regatta. The route is simple and magnificent - Golfe-Juan, Antibes, Nice, Villefranche/Bouillet-sur-Mer, Monaco and Cannes. Mulled wine, blankets, the clear air of the winter azure coast, awesome food, movies on sails, charades and french soups with crazy names, and some gentlemen's races, where everyone gives way to each other, of course!

All in all, a leisurely, relaxed stay in good company on an excellent route. The antithesis of the crazy schedule that reigns in our usual races, where every minute is scheduled. There are only 5 yachts planned, so don't put off signing up!

  • Dates: January 1 - 8, 2011. EasyJet tickets to Nice for these dates are obscenely cheap.
  • Price: £350/bed, early bird.

It will be cold average temperature+10 but it's not particularly cold English summer. Winter on this stretch of coast is usually mild, sunny, the winds are stable, but there are also strong ones, of course. We do not plan long distance crossings, all overnight stays in harbors. Bring sweaters, guitars, blankets, dominoes, your favorite dvds and lots and lots of socks. Heating on the yacht - Yes! Yes! Yes! We bring ‘breezes’ to all yachts, it will be warm. If you still have doubts, read it, you won't regret it!

See you on the Riviera

Yacht club "Cabestan"

The 7th Mediterranean regatta of the Kabestan Yachting Club – “Croatia 2010” has ended. 14 crews competed for prizes in a series of cross-country races around the country's islands.

Almost half of the route met the teams with 30 knots of wind, testing crews and yachts for strength. There are many adventures, accidents and racing excitement recorded in the ship's logs, and the crews learned a lot and fought for every meter!

Overall race winners:

1. Ilya Kosolapov, Ivory team (Moscow, Russia)
2. Maxim Shvedov, Northern Breeze team (London, UK)
3. Vladimir Phillips, Mercury Team (London, UK)

As always, the highlight of the program was the traditional “Tuzik Race”, the main rule of which is the use of kitchen utensils instead of oars. The fight was serious, not only for the first place, but also for the prize for the best costume.

All the crews went to the distance seriously prepared, and choosing the best suit was the most difficult process in the entire regatta!

Race winners: The Real Indians, Ivory and Wolves. Prize for the best costume: the crew of “SnowPro – SNOWa PRёt” dressed as hangover surgeons.

On one of the last evenings of the regatta, the Gambit team, led by skipper Ivan Starostin, staged a wonderful theatrical performance for the participants of the regatta and local residents right on the embankment of the village of Rogoznitsa.

Team Gambit

The musical-satirical play called "Captain's Grief" (based on Chukovsky's "Fedorino Grief") went off with a bang! and the evening ended with "karaoke in Russian" - songs accompanied by guitars, once again confirming the unique fighting and creative spirit of the club.

The next regatta of the sailing club “Cabestan” will be held in England at the end of August.
