Rolex Middle Sea Race 2023 – Race start


The 44th edition of the Rolex Middle Sea Race is underway. Partnered by Rolex since 2002, the event is considered one of the world’s most beautiful and challenging offshore races. An international fleet of 110 yachts from 26 countries are contesting the 2023 race. Following today’s start from Grand Harbour, Valletta, Malta, competitors will tackle the 606-nautical mile (1,122 kilometres) course which comprises an anti-clockwise circumnavigation of Sicily before finishing back in Malta. At the crossroads of the Mediterranean, the course is renowned for its geography. The race’s iconic landmark is the volcanic island of Stromboli. The Rolex Middle Sea Race was founded in 1968 and is organized by the Royal Malta Yacht Club. Discover more https://on.rolex.com/3Q4EKbt
