Ultimate Sailing has been photographing Transpac for more than two decades, helping make memories last. We have the talent, and tried-and-true techniques for getting the shots – at the start off, Point Fermin, Catalina rounding, Molokai Channel, and Diamond Head finish.
But more than that: we have a passion for photographing Transpac: it’s our favorite event – full of action, scenery, drama, and emotion.
Let us help you preserve your memories with a photo package from Ultimate Sailing. We will have a team of professional photographers in San Pedro, the starting line, Catalina rounding, Molokai Channel, Diamond Head finish, dock arrivals, and the trophy presentation. Choose from photo packages large or small (attached) or customize your own.

But you must order now, so we can staff up, book the boats and helicopter, and plan for your arrival. We’ll be there to cheer you on!
Mahalo and warm wishes for a wiki wiki Transpac!

There is a strong connection between Transpac and Whittier Trust, now in its third year as the Heritage Sponsor in this year’s 52nd edition of the race. This connection is not only based on shared principles of planning and managing risks for beneficial outcomes, something inherent to all ocean racers. As the oldest, private multi-family office headquartered on the West Coast, more than 500 families place their trust in Whittier to do the same: be prepared to navigate the wide range of uncertainties we face in current circumstances that require a steady hand at the helm and sound judgment.

In four short weeks – Tuesday, June 27th – the first wave of starters in the 2023 Transpac Race will be assembled off Point Fermin in anticipation of their 1300 starting signal to set off towards the finish line in Honolulu, 2225- miles away. This will be the start of the 52rd edition of this biennial ocean racing classic organized by the Transpacific Yacht Club and first run in 1906.
This first wave will consist of 14 monohulls from 35 to 63 feet in length – but why such a broad range? Because these boats are anticipated to take the longest elapsed times to get to Hawaii. Starting them first helps compress the fleet arrival times in Hawaii so more of the participants may be together after their finishes.
