The exploits of the Contessa 32 racing offshore are now the stuff of legend and there can be few skippers that do not know the history of the 1979 Fastnet race. In recent years the Contessa 32 continues to be a popular choice for racing offshore, particularly single or double handed.

In the last few years Contessa 32s have raced in the OSTAR, AZAB, RBI and Fastnet races and finished well in class.

There is no specific Contessa 32 Offshore race series at this time but if you plan to race offshore please do contact the Association so that we can promote your exploits and our members can track your progress.
