The Transpac is one of the world’s oldest and longest biennial ocean races, having first sailed in 1906 from an idea inspired by King Kalakaua.
The event stretches 2,225 miles from Los Angeles to Honolulu, with the finish at the Diamond Head buoy.
The other three divisions set sail on Thursday and Saturday.
