The story

Raja Muda Selangor International Regatta in Port Klang/Pangkor/Penang/Langkawi

The Raja Muda Selangor International Regatta is Asia's second-oldest regatta, an annual offshore sailing event organized by the Royal Selangor Yacht Club that runs from Port Klang to Langkawi via Pangkor Island and Penang each November. Combining three overnight offshore passage races with three days of harbour racing, the event totals more than 300 nautical miles and draws yachts ranging from modern IRC racers to classic cruisers over a century old.

Malaysia's west coast, running from the industrial port city of Klang up through the island of Pangkor, the historic trading port of Penang, and finally to the resort archipelago of Langkawi, provides the route for one of Asia's most storied sailing events, the Raja Muda Selangor International Regatta.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

The place changes

Few sailing events anywhere combine multi-day offshore ocean passage racing with island-hopping harbour racing stops in the same regatta, giving RMSIR a distinctive hybrid format compared to single-venue regattas elsewhere in Asia

The mystery stays covered

Its history as Asia's second-oldest regatta gives it institutional depth within the region's sailing calendar, run jointly by the Royal Selangor Yacht Club and the internationally respected Royal Ocean Racing Club

The city starts moving

The mix of competitive IRC yachts alongside classic cruising boats over 100 years old means the fleet itself spans more than a century of sailing design and history within a single event
