I am very much looking forward to being away for so long, meeting new people and discovering new places. It is still some way off, but time is moving on. It is still the end of January and it is bitterly cold outside, so the voyage feels a long way away for now.</p>https://lucy.hamburg/en/england-2026/legs/classic-channel/Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000https://lucy.hamburg/en/england-2026/legs/classic-channel/<p>Yeah, it&rsquo;s regatta from 7 to 16 July 😎</p> <p><strong>The course of the Classic Channel Regatta 2026 runs from Dartmouth in the UK via St Peter Port in Guernsey and Lézardrieux in Brittany to Paimpol in Brittany, with races in between and a final circuit round Île de Bréhat.</strong></p> <h2 class="relative group">Course description <div id="course-description" class="anchor"></div> <span class="absolute top-0 w-6 transition-opacity opacity-0 -start-6 not-prose group-hover:opacity-100 select-none"> <a class="text-primary-300 dark:text-neutral-700 !no-underline" href="#course-description" aria-label="Anchor">#</a> </span> </h2> <p>The regatta starts with two race days off Dartmouth, followed by a crossing to St Peter Port. After that comes a race to Lézardrieux, a sail to Paimpol, and it finishes with the race round Île de Bréhat. The course covers about 150 nautical miles across the Channel.</p>https://lucy.hamburg/en/england-2026/legs/co32-regatta/Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000https://lucy.hamburg/en/england-2026/legs/co32-regatta/<table> <thead> <tr> <th>Location</th> <th>Date</th> <th>Time</th> <th>Event</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>Yarmouth</td> <td>2026-06-26</td> <td>1200</td> <td>Arrival in Harbor</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Yarmouth</td> <td>2026-06-26</td> <td>1700 - 1800</td> <td>Registration at Royal Solent Yacht Club</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Yarmouth</td> <td>2026-06-27</td> <td>1000</td> <td>Start Contessa 32 Inshore Series 2</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Yarmouth</td> <td>2026-06-28</td> <td>0930</td> <td>Start Contessa 32 Inshore Series 2</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Yarmouth</td> <td>2026-06-28</td> <td>after 1. race</td> <td>Start 2. race Contessa 32 Inshore Series 2</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.royalsolent.org/rsyc-contessa-regatta/rsyc-contessa-regatta-2026/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">RSYC Contessa Regatta 2026</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.royalsolent.org/wp-content/uploads/CONTESSA-REGATTA-2026-NOTICE-OF-RACE-1.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Notice of Race</a></li> </ul>https://lucy.hamburg/en/england-2026/legs/cruising-channel/Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000https://lucy.hamburg/en/england-2026/legs/cruising-channel/<table> <thead> <tr> <th>Location</th> <th>Date</th> <th>Time</th> <th>Event</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>Lymington</td> <td>2026-06-15</td> <td>–</td> <td>Arrival in Harbor</td> </tr> <tr> <td>?</td> <td>?</td> <td>–</td> <td></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Yarmouth</td> <td>2026-06-26</td> <td>1200</td> <td>Arrival in Harbor</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>https://lucy.hamburg/en/england-2026/legs/west-country/Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000https://lucy.hamburg/en/england-2026/legs/west-country/<p>Ask me later 😎</p>https://lucy.hamburg/en/england-2026/legs/hamburg-lymington/Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000https://lucy.hamburg/en/england-2026/legs/hamburg-lymington/<h2 class="relative group">Overview <div id="overview" class="anchor"></div> <span class="absolute top-0 w-6 transition-opacity opacity-0 -start-6 not-prose group-hover:opacity-100 select-none"> <a class="text-primary-300 dark:text-neutral-700 !no-underline" href="#overview" aria-label="Anchor">#</a> </span> </h2> <p>Between Hamburg and Lymington there are at least 470 nm. In practice, it will probably be about 30% more, so roughly 600 nm. That is quite feasible in 10–14 days, with a few longer legs of more than 60 nm on the cards.</p> <p>Some passages will run into the night, or begin before dawn so that arrival is in daylight. After night passages, a rest day is planned. During the legs, the crew can keep watches and sleep in rotation.</p>https://lucy.hamburg/en/england-2026/legs/southampton-hamburg/Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000https://lucy.hamburg/en/england-2026/legs/southampton-hamburg/<p>Ask me later 😎</p>
