[ Archived ] Compete in 2017 Caribbean Regattas as Ocean Racer Crew! Antigua & Barbuda to Bermuda ref 7387

From Falmouth Harbour, Antigua & Barbuda to , Bermuda.
February 2017 to June 2017.
Ocean Racers is an international sailing team and network that provides round the world sailing adventures for amateurs to professionals. We are looking to build our racing crew for the 2017 Caribbean Racing circuit, so single crew opportunities are for experience crew only. Currently we are only offering the Caribbean 600, St Maarten Heineken Regatta and Antigua-Bermuda America's Cup Prelude Race as crewed opportunities. Crew fees contribute to boat maintenance and racing fees, which are $1500-2500 depending on the race. We are also considering competing in the St Thomas International Regatta, BVI Spring Regatta, Les Voiles de St Barth and Antigua Sailing Week. However these opportunities are for formed teams only, so the boat will need to be reserved as a whole with a team. Less experience is required for these regattas, as they are daily racing and a more fun atmosphere. So we encourage teams, friends, families and even businesses to consider joining our crew as a group and racing with us! Full team (private) races are $12,000-$16,000 for up to 8 guests.
Ocean Racers is currently based in United States

Crew roles: For the Caribbean 600 and Antigua-Bermuda Race, we will be racing offshore and overnight. Crew will be hot bunking, serving watches, as well as assisting with cooking/cleaning. All food is included on these races, no alcohol. For the daily regattas, all crew are guaranteed their own bunk in port at night. It is up to you whether or not you stay onboard at night or not. Breakfast and dinner are on your own. Lunch while racing is included. Please let us know your skill-set as we are looking for well-balanced crew on our mixed teams. For private teams, you will be able to run strategy, tactics and navigation while our liveaboard skipper is at your disposal for help and guidance. Please have your team leader/captain contact us only. All regattas have a fun, party atmosphere -- so expect great times with amazing people! We will host our own private training days and welcome party in the days leading up to race start. JOIN THE OCEAN RACERS CREW! Visit our website www.oceanracers.net to learn more and apply.
