The Ocean Race 2023 will visit nine iconic international cities over a six-month period, with leg one starting from Alicante, Spain, on January 15 2023. It will be raced in two dynamic classes of boats: The high-performance, foiling IMOCA class and the one-design VO65 class which produced such close, compelling racing in the last two editions of the race.
Both classes of boats are capable of high speeds and in the right conditions can cover 600 nautical miles or more in 24 hours.
Entries in the IMOCA class will compete for The Ocean Race trophy, while those racing the VO65s will chase The Ocean Race VO65 Sprint Cup.
