The 2025 Admiral’s Cup inshore series roared into life with a dramatic double-header in the Solent. Under a shifty breeze ranging from 16 to 22 knots, the fleet delivered two high-intensity races—one short and tactical, the other a demanding round-the-cans challenge finishing off the Royal Yacht Squadron. With podium places decided by seconds, torn sails, and relentless pressure across the course, this was inshore yacht racing at its fiercest. It was a day of comebacks, boat-on-boat duels, and critical decisions—proof that every tack counts at the Admiral’s Cup. (CC Available)
