In glorious sunshine and near perfect sailing conditions, Pace crossed the finish line first in the 2026 Round the Island Race, capping off an unforgettable day on the water. 

With thousands of spectators lining the shores and the iconic Needles providing a breath taking backdrop, the race once again showcased why it remains one of the world’s most celebrated yacht races. 

From the exhilarating start to the triumphant finish, Pace’s outstanding performance embodied the spirit of this legendary event, making for a spectacular victory in one of the most beautiful editions of the race in recent memory.

“Watching PACE cross the finish line first was an incredible moment—a breath taking display of speed, skill and teamwork worthy of the Round the Island Race.”

Dave Atkinson. Round The Island Race Director
