ANTIGUA WEEK 2008

Antigua Week 2008

Antigua Regatta Week is for the sailor who wants to try something different. Imagine sailing in the sunshine in just shorts and T-shirt and a good warm breeze blowing. The slow Caribbean life on this tranquil island is transformed once a year when the regatta comes to Antigua.

This is without doubt one of the best events on the calendar, well organised racing and hospitality second to none in superb natural surroundings. Whether novice or experienced in yachting MEC Sail can accommodate you.

The holiday is broken up into two parts.

First Week: 27th April - 3rd May 2008 Second Week: 4th May – 10th May 2008
On arrival at Antigua, join our yacht, and prepare for some friendly Caribbean yacht racing in the sunshine. With experienced and non experienced sailors all taking part in one of the best regatta locations in the world you are sure of plenty of action and fun. We race to different parts of Antiqua and continue with serious partying and plenty of rum punch well into the small hours. Nows the time to relax, chill out and choose your destination. With many islands to choose from we won't see them all - but hey whats the rush after all it is the Caribbean. Bring your fins and snorkel for some exceptional sights below the water line including exotic tropical fish. Fisherman don't forget the rod, we have been known to catch very big tuna for dinner.

Our Intentions

Arrange flights and transfers at the best possible rates.

To provide you with a unique holiday on board a cruiser/race yacht approx 40 feet.

We will provide an experienced skipper to lead the novices through the complications of yacht racing and galvanise the more experienced sailors into a team. The crews will be chosen on their experience, ability and enthusiasm!

Dinner will be a mixture of dining aboard (you will be the chef on one occasion) or at one of the many restaurants on the island.

Two weeks of sailing, partying, relaxing and enjoying oneself is a must for anyone looking for a holiday with a difference!

Accommodation will be on board. Provisioning and additional costs will be covered by a kitty.

Racing security deposit required - fully refundable in the event of no losses.

Approximate cost £1,300.00 per person excluding flights. Singles, groups or couples welcome.

Talk to Maria (07771 632574) or David (07974 753121) to register your interest in a holiday of a lifetime.
