Twenty boats and crews have already claimed their spot on the starting line for the 2025 Transpacific Yacht Race, including past first-place finishers Pyewacket, Roy Disney's Andrews 70, and the Kernan 68 Peligroso, now skippered by Cecil Rossi, who won his division in 2023 racing the Farr 57 Ho'okolehe.

So far, the scratch sheet is showing several veteran entries, boats with well-honed professional crew and many smaller amateur teams with shorter waterlines, such as Alli Bell's Cal 40 Restless and Stacy Sinclair's Kelly Peterson Rhiannon. It's a hallmark of Transpac that the challenges inherent to a long-distance ocean race attract such a variety of sailors, from those looking to break speed records or personal bests, to those wanting to experience that comes from successfully crossing the Pacific in company with some of the best sailors in the world.
