The 18th edition, hosted by Long Beach Yacht Club (LBYC), attracted an international fleet of 17 boats representing six nations: United States, Great Britian, Germany, Italy, Turkey, and Australia. And while LBYC has put on the well-known Congressional Cup for 51 years, this is the first time it had hosted a world championship.
The 19th edition of the Rolex Farr 40 World Championship takes the fleet to Sydney, Australia, next February. Afterwards a return to Europe is planned for the class, which over nearly two decades has set new standards for teamwork, precision and fair sailing. Values which align perfectly with those of long-term title sponsor Rolex.
