Race for UCD04 Pipit by UCDs Club

for Individual sailors and teams

This special race is a tribute to one of the most remarkable small-boat journeys in maritime history.
Sailed exclusively with the UCD 04 Pipit, the race commemorates the historic April departure of Shackleton’s open-boat voyage — a journey defined by seamanship, endurance, and absolute trust in a simple vessel under extreme conditions.
The UCD 04 Pipit was designed to echo that spirit: classic, efficient, and honest.
Join us on April 24 for this commemorative sail.
