Spectacular aerial drone and high-definition footage capturing Day 6 racing action at Cowes Week!
Filmed and produced by Wight Sky Media, this recap focuses on two of the Solent’s most iconic, historic dayboat fleets: the X One Design (XOD) and the Victory Class. Watch these beautiful traditional fleets battle tactical tides and fierce competition across Solent waters.
⛵ Featured Classes & History:
X One Design (XOD) Class:
Designed in 1909 by Alfred Westmacott, the 20ft 8in XOD is legendary in Solent sailing history. Continually standing as the largest one-design fleet at Cowes Week, these classic dayboats feature tight, tactically demanding racing where decades-old wooden hulls compete on equal terms.
Victory Class:
Founded in 1934 to race out of Portsmouth Harbour and Cowes, the 21ft clinker-built Victory boats are instantly recognizable by their dark hulls and 'Z' sail insignia. Built for tight one-design racing, they represent nearly a century of Solent heritage.
From high-altitude drone shots showing tactical maneuvers to water-level action, experience world-class classic fleet racing at its finest.
