The Transatlantic Race 2015 was a 2,800-mile race from Newport, R.I., to The Lizard on the southwestern corner of England. The 30th transatlantic race since three New York Yacht Club members sponsored the first one in 1866. A fleet of 38 boats—ranging in size from 40 to 140 feet and in age from 100 years to 10 months—departed from Newport in one of three different starts (June 28, July 1 and July 5). They spent from one to three weeks crossing the Atlantic. For more information, visit the race's website: http://transatlantic race.com - Published July 30, 2015
