There are races that mark a sailor's life. The Fastnet is one of them.
Crossing the English Channel, hugging the Celtic coasts, facing the whims of the North Atlantic, rounding the iconic Fastnet Rock lighthouse... This regatta, among the most emblematic in the world, is a true adventure where every mile traveled is a challenge.
This year, an Excess 14 joins the fleet. Its presence perfectly illustrates what this race embodies: the passion for the open sea, the taste for commitment, and the unique pleasure of sailing close to the elements, among seasoned sailors and well-prepared dreamers.
At Excess, we believe that the open sea is a realm of emotions. What matters is to live intensely, to dare, to step out of the box. So seeing one of our catamarans launch from this legendary line is a source of pride; but above all, a confirmation: the sailing of tomorrow will not compromise on style or boldness.
We will follow this departure with admiration. Good luck to all crews, and fair winds to the Excess tribe represented.
