The Helly Hansen Sailing World Regatta Series Caribbean Championship is the final regatta in the series, and one of the most prestigious to attend. At each series regatta, one winner is chosen as the Caribbean Challenger of that particular event. In addition to the bragging rights that come with the earned title, is an invitation to compete in the Championship event in the British Virgin Islands courtesy of Sunsail. Sunsail has generously offered each challenger an equally-matched charter boat in the BVIs for a week to determine the Caribbean Champion.
The great news is that sailors everywhere are invited to participate in the Caribbean Championship. Sailing World has added an open class to the event and Sunsail offers special discounts on their fleet of high-performance bareboats in Tortola for all who wish to come and race against the champions in the British Virgin Islands. Ideally, the event will pit current winners against past winners and anyone else who wishes to take them on and seek the title of Caribbean Champion.
Another awesome aspect to the program is the availability of a fleet of Mothership Catamarans on a first-come, first-served basis again at a special event rate. These have become more and more popular over the years and certainly provide your crew, and additional friends and family, a great platform to spectate and enjoy the thrill of racing in the Caribbean. Not to mention they are a great place to host parties, or so we’ve heard…
