Competing in the Fastnet Race is a dream for many sailors, and the 2023 edition is already shaping up to be one of the most exciting yet. For those who are lucky enough to participate, the race is a true test of sailing ability, endurance, and teamwork. However, for us who are competing on our classic Swan 65, Eve, gives an added level of significance to the race, both in terms of the boat’s history and its performance on the water.
