Bellino racing doublehanded © Rick Tomlinson / RORC The RYA has welcomed the creation of a new sailing series aimed at promoting and growing short-handed offshore sailing in the UK. The UK Double Handed Offshore Series will be a stand-alone series debuting in 2021 made up of six existing races including flagship events such as the Rolex Fastnet Race and Round the Island Race. The RORC-backed series is the brainchild of round-the-world sailor Henry Bomby, who raced in the 2017-18 Volvo Ocean Race and has also competed on the singlehanded Figaro circuit. It will be open to double handed teams sailing boats with an IRC rating between 0.990 and 1.055 TCC, and has already attracted big names such as two-time Olympic gold medallist Shirley Robertson and Dee Caffari, the only the only woman to have sailed non-stop around the world three times.
