With more than two months to go before the close of entries, organizers from the 𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗹𝘂𝗯 (HORC) are excited that there are already teams from 13 nations signed up for the 2023 edition of the AEGEAN 600. This is the most internationally-diverse fleet in the three-year history of this annual race, often referred to the “perfect 600-mile race” for its superb race course, excellent weather and sea conditions, and outstanding Greek hospitality.

Activities in this 3rd edition of the race start on Sunday July 2nd with free berthing for all entries, followed by numerous pre-race activities held daily, such as the 𝗦𝗮𝗳𝗲𝘁𝘆 𝗦𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿 held on Thursday July 6th. The Skipper’s Briefing will be on Friday July 7th, and then the spectacular start of the race held at the ancient Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounio on Sunday July 9th. The event concludes with a gala Awards ceremony on Saturday July 15th.

All activities will be held at the 𝗢𝗹𝘆𝗺𝗽𝗶𝗰 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗲 venue, a premier full-service facility that provides complete services and support for visiting yachtsman. Dockage for entries this year will not only be available at no charge from July 2nd through July 17th, but moorings will be organized together to create a more cohesive Race Village feel to the event. This will allow participants and their friends and family to enjoy the pre- and post-race ambience among the fleet of boats entered in the race.

Another innovation is adding a new event to the entry calendar: a 13-mile warm-up race starting at 11:00 on Saturday July 8th. This short prelude to the main event starting the following day will offer a more structured opportunity for not only the teams to practice, but the race committee as well.

𝗡𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗼𝘀 𝗕𝗲𝗲𝗿
Refreshing, full-bodied and spirited, inspired by the island lifestyle and the magic of the Cyclades.

NISSOS in Greek means “island”. NISSOS was born in the Cyclades and is a child of the Aegean. It is happiest in the company of friends enjoying the sun’s warm caress on long summer afternoons.But it is equally at home in cool shade, against a backdrop of dazzling white-washed houses under clear blue skies. ☀️ 🇬🇷
