Royal Ocean Racing Club, Yacht club in City of Westminster, United Kingdom.

The Royal Ocean Racing Club is a yacht club with two locations: a headquarters in London and a clubhouse on the Isle of Wight overlooking the Solent. The facilities include dining areas, guest rooms, meeting spaces, and a bar named after the famous offshore race.

The club was founded in 1925 as the Ocean Racing Club following a race to Fastnet Rock. King George V granted it royal recognition in 1931.

The organization maintains international racing standards through the development of the International Rating Certificate in collaboration with the Yacht Club de France.

Access depends on membership status since this is a private club. It is best to inquire ahead about visitor access and visiting times.

The club organizes several international sailing races, including the famous Fastnet Race and the Round Britain and Ireland Race. These events draw sailors from around the world.
