Van Isle 360 International Yacht Race

Van Isle 360 International Yacht Race June 5-19, 2027. The Van Isle 360 is a biennial (odd year), 580 nm. point to point race circumnavigating wild and rugged Vancouver Island, B.C.

Sailed in a series of legs the course provides inshore, offshore and overnight legs through some of the most stunning and challenging waters on the planet.

At 22:00 Sunday night, ELBOWS UP! crossed the finish line, completing her campaign of doing the Swiftsure Lightship Classic course, while also being the last boat to finish Swiftsure before the deadline. Kudos to Royal Victoria Yacht Club's Vice Commodore AJ Hesford and crew on your successful race. Hope to see you in the 2027 Van Isle 360 International Yacht Race.

Many thanks to Craig Garrison of the Pacific NW Offshore race for sharing this image of Orcas 🫍 along the Clover Point start line as Swiftsure boats set off for Race Passage. Nature at her best, and consistent winds on the nose. A taste of what Van Isle 360 International Yacht Race brings racers.
