The Antigua to Bermuda Race is on for a 7th May 2024 start
Coming soon after Antigua Sailing Week we will have Spirit of Juno available for individual or small group places and a Beneteau 36.7 available for whole boat chartes or individual places
The Antigua Bermuda Race will start from Antigua May 7th 2024. The 935nm oceanic race is managed by the Royal Bermuda Yacht Club in association with Antigua Sailing Week, and supported by the Bermuda Tourism Authority and Goslings Rum. The race is designed to suit a wide range of yachts and crew, with memorable parties both in Antigua and Bermuda.
After leaving Antigua the fleet pass Barbuda and will be out of sight of land until the finish in Bermuda. The race is an experience of about 1,000 miles of tropical Atlantic sailing - a true blue ocean adventure. Sailing in the deep, competitors will experience reaching conditions in warm oceanic swell and a magical night sky.
In 2024, our Beneteau First 36.7 will be participating before returning to Charleston for the summer.
Antigua Sailing Week consists of six challenging days of top class racing in, what are regarded as, the best sailing conditions in the World.
Ondeck Sailing can offer you comprehensive local knowledge and the unique experience of being part of a local company.
The race village and marinas are all close and within safe and easy walking distance. The choice of bars, restaurants, local BBQ's and late night spots make this a wonderful event whether you are coming as a group or on your own.
Spirit of Juno is our 'head boat' meaning that individuals or small groups can join the team for an event. we normally have around 4 pro crew on board so can take a mix of experienced racers as well as a few novices.
She is a physical yacht with no powered winches so there are plenty of jobs even for a big crew and you will not be 'rail meat' as we try and involve our guests in many of the roles on board.
She usually achieves podium positions at the major regattas and attracts a strong and loyal following with many strong friendships built.
