Årlig seilas fra Oslo via Færder fyr til Horten. Starten fra Aker Brygge utgjør et flott syn av hundrevis av seilbåter i Oslos indre havn.

Annual regatta from Oslo to Horten.
Enjoy the spectacular sight of hundreds of sailboats on the Oslo Fjord!

The Fæder Regatta is one of the world’s biggest overnight regattas. From its inception in 1947, with seven boats competing, the regatta has grown considerably and this year more than 1000 boats and 4-5000 sailors will participate.

The starting line is located at Aker Brygge, and the first boats will start at 12.00. Sending off more than 1000 boats from what is a relatively confined space represents a logistical nightmare, but also a very spectacular sight that is well worth the trip.

The regatta is organized by the Royal Norwegian Yacht Club. King Harald V, an expert yachtsman, will be entering and is expected to be one of the top contenders.
