The Volvo Ocean Race is held about every three years in the USA, and in May 2018 it will be right here in the backyard of our Newport Rhode Island location. Step aboard the Schooner Adirondack II or Sloop Eleanor for a spectating cruise and watch these stunning yachts cut through the water and sail Newport! Cruise with us on these intimate sailing vessels for a afternoon of viewing this epic event. Sail through Narragansett Bay and get a up close and personal view of the race. Newport Rhode Island is known as the sailing capital of the USA, and what better place to hold the races than right here. This City by the Sea is a historic location and there are many things to do and learn, but the thing that you will remember most is sailing on a classic sailboat while taking in the Volvo Ocean Race!

The Volvo Ocean Race is the most challenging sailboat race in the world, requiring from athletes extreme levels of courage, strength, endurance and expertise. The teams will face severe weather, unfathomable human challenges and mountainous ocean conditions during the ten-month race. Before they head back out in the ocean, they will have some informal races on Narraganset Bay. Come out and watch as the excitement builds for the start of the race on Sunday.
