2005 Rolex Transatlantic Challenge
The 2005 Rolex Transatlantic Challenge was celebrated at the 100th anniversary of the 1905 race for the Kaiser's Cup also known as The Great Ocean Race. In this race, there was a skipper named Charlie Barr who raced the 3-masted schooner called Atlantic across the Ocean for nearly 3,000 nautical miles of the North Atlantic to set a monohull unbeaten record for the 1905 course of exactly only 12 days, 4 hours, 1 minute and 19 seconds.
