The race sets off from Las Palmas on the Canary Islands and finishes in Rodney Bay, St. Lucia, requiring the Race4Rene
sailing team to cruise unaided for 2,700 NM across the Atlantic ocean. This will be the crew’s very first ocean crossing and in some cases first sail, competing with experienced racers in one of
the toughest amateur ocean races on earth. Whilst racing around the clock for 16 days, the Race4Rene crew will
experience the rolling Atlantic swells, invariable rain & gusts of up to 30kts. Arriving in St. Lucia will not only be a triumph
of the seas, but that of a group of men and women together on a boat in memory of their friend talking openly and candidly about their loss and mental health.
