NOTES FOR EDITORS

The Ocean Race Cape Town Stopover

No other stopover city is as closely associated with The Ocean Race as Cape Town South Africa, which has so far welcomed the around- the-world fleet in 11 of the race's 13 editions - far more than any other host port. The 2022-23 race marks the eighth consecutive time that Cape Town has hosted a stopover.
