22 Point Six (Maritime) Ltd wants 6 crew for Bella of London, Grand Soleil 50, 15m.

From English Harbour, Antigua & Barbuda to English Harbour, Antigua & Barbuda.

April 2014 to April 2014.

Antigua Sailing Week is one of the world’s premier sailing events. Held in the final week of April, this regatta attracts yachts from all over the world with entries from some of the world’s top racers. Five days of racing round the cans over a variety of challenging coastal race courses and fuelled by the ever present Trade Winds sets up some amazing duels and some very exciting racing. And all of this takes part on the warm, blue Caribbean Sea with stunning island scenery as a backdrop. Then, after a hard day of racing you can enjoy beach barbecues, entertained by steel bands and fuelled by rum punch. These parties can last well into the night although, with more racing the next day, a reasonably early night is had by most crews. At the end of the week, awards are presented in Nelson’s Dockyard followed the next day by the Beating of the Retreat signalling the close of Antigua Sailing Week for yet another year. Individual crew places are available on Bella as well as a whole boat charter package. This is a great opportunity to take part in this world famous event and enjoy a fabulous week’s sailing. The race package includes: • Experienced racing skipper and mate • All meals, drinks and snacks on-board • All berthing fees • Race entry fees and on-board expenses (diesel, gas etc) Excluded from the package are: • Personal Insurance • Flights/Transfers • Shore-side accommodation • Sailing boots/footwear • Wet weather gear • Meals ashore
