Corporate Events

There is a growing trend in the UK for businesses to participate in ‘industry’ sailing race events. The competition is fierce, the advertising prolific, the rewards high.

A booming example is the Little Britain Challenge Cup – an event exclusively for the building and architectural industries, with a regular entry level of over 300 companies, and an incredible 2500 people sailing. A huge marquis is set up in Cowes Yacht Haven, offering participants the opportunity to meet and network with other related companies, and of course, find out what the competition is up to.

There are many other regattas, covering most industries. We can take care of all aspects of your entries, plus arrange spectator and rigid inflatable boats to complement your involvement. There are options for most budgets. Can you afford not to be represented?

If there isn’t yet a regatta for your specific industry, what better way to make your mark than to set one up. Or simply set up a regatta for your own company, and/or a select band of competitors. Come and talk to us to charter a yacht or set up an event and beat your competitors!

Set up your own event

If your industry is not yet represented in the multitude of inter-industry regattas, come and talk to us .

We have considerable experience in the organisation and management of corporate events – ranging from a single day’s racing in the Solent, to cross channel rallies and fund-raising regattas for charity. We can set up and organise a regatta for you and your industry competitors.

Get in there quick, and the regatta can sport your company’s name, like the Bank of England managed with their event!

Spectator boat

For those not wanting to sail, or those who just want to watch an exciting day on the water, a spectator boat is the perfect solution. Treat your guests to a luxurious, relaxing day – making the most of the onboard catering and the expertise of our professional skippers and delightful hostesses. A superb way to enjoy a day’s racing in style.

Support RIB

For those that wish to get closer to the action, a rigid inflatable boat (RIB) is an exhilarating alternative to the luxurious spectator yacht.

The RIB can safely and quickly get in and out of the racing fleet, positioning itself so that you and your guests can watch the finer racing points. It’s also a useful addition to any event – it can be on hand for any requirement from collecting guests from the yachts, to carrying your company battle flag!
