The Solent Forts Race is taking a breather this year. We hope to see you in 2026! The most recent results are available on the 2023 race page.
Running almost every year since 2012, the Solent Forts Race attracts a wide range of sailors from across the UK and beyond who come to compete in this challenging and unique long-distance race set in the Eastern Solent.
Hosted by the Hayling Ferry Sailing Club from their base in the dunes at the western tip of Hayling Island, a warm welcome awaits with good food, free camping and live music on the Saturday night.
The 2024 edition of this event was scheduled to take place over the weekend of 15th and 16th June at Hayling Ferry Sailing Club. Due to an adverse weather forecast and last minute withdrawals the race was cancelled. We hope to back in 2026.
The Solent Forts Race is a long-distance event set in the Eastern Solent, with Hayling Island and Portsmouth to the north and the Isle of Wight to the west. Originally open to fast catamarans, the race is now open to all as part of the Allen Endurance Series.
