RACE TO MACKINAC | The 117th Chicago Yacht Club Race to Mackinac, the world's largest annual offshore race, is almost here. More than 260 boats and thousands of sailors will line up to tackle the iconic 333-nautical mile course from Chicago to Mackinac Island.
We'll be cheering on our Doyle-powered teams as they take on one of offshore sailing's great bucket-list races, including the GL52s Hooligan (John Evans & Trey Sheehan) and Mockingbird (Chris Duhon), New Zealand-flagged J/125 Callisto (Jim Murray), along with many more across the fleet.
Good luck to all the crews—we can't wait to follow the action on Lake Michigan!

PROJECT ZERO | Another major milestone for SY Zero.
Today, Vitters Shipyard, Vripack Design and Dykstra Naval Architects rolled the groundbreaking 69-metre sailing yacht out of the construction hall at Vitters, marking another significant step towards launch.
Designed and built to operate entirely on harvested renewable energy, SY Zero has selected Doyle Sails as its sailmaker of choice. In the coming days, two Panamax-height masts, built by Carbo-Link, will be stepped before the yacht begins an extensive sea trial programme to test, refine and validate its pioneering systems.
A remarkable project pushing the boundaries of sustainable sailing, and we're proud to be part of the journey.

AEGEAN 600 | The fleet is well underway in near-perfect conditions. A blustery start saw the famous Meltemi breeze blowing 25–30 knots, with crews setting off under reefed mainsails and small jibs.
Now, it's champagne sailing as the fleet rounds the stunning Aegean Islands.
Keep an eye on the Doyle-powered teams chasing strong results:
