Oliver Heer Ocean Racing

Fantastic day on the water in New York Harbour, with guests from Bossard Americas joining us for speed runs under the Statue of Liberty.

A great chance to share the boat, build some race-week energy and keep sharpening the final details ahead of the start on 1 September.

Welcome to the The Ocean Race Atlantic 2026 💥

We present to you… Embrace The Challenge 👊🏻

New York, we’ve arrived. 🗽

From the skyline to the dock in Brooklyn, the team is now settled into race week and focused on the final preparation before The Ocean Race Atlantic starts on 1 September.

Newport, you’ve been great as always 🇺🇸 👋

Now it’s time for the next stop: New York. 🗽

We’re excited to get into the race village, settle into race week and focus fully on the final preparation ahead of the start on 1 September.

Preparation is done 😮‍💨

The Atlantic stands in the way 🌊

We’re ready to push Embrace The Challenge to it’s max 🚀

A wet Newport welcome 🇺🇸

Despite the weather, it was a pleasure to welcome a group onboard Embrace The Challenge for a VIP tour of the IMOCA and the chance to meet Ollie and the team.

For us, showing people what goes into taking on hard things is a big part of this campaign. Hopefully a few of our visitors left inspired to take on a challenge of their own.

Thanks to our Big Weather Gear & Henri Lloyd competition winners for coming down and embracing the Newport weather with us!
