Sneak out of our base in Tortola and ride the easterly trade winds towards Virgin Gorda's immense natural rock pools. A sailor's paradise, the BVI is home to warm weather, ideal conditions and hundreds of hidden cays and spectacular dive sites. Navigate the cays, sounds and islands between Jost van Dyke and the incredible coral island, Anegada. Tuck into fresh seafood, and engage in relaxed island life at every stop. Enjoy line-of-sight, short hops all around the Sir Francis Drake Channel, or take on a longer passage. Sip rum punch as you watch the sunset, and explore Norman Island, the inspiration for Treasure Island.
After plans for joining a boat for the Volvo Round Ireland Race fell through, we were determined to get out and get some footage of some of the leading boats passing down through the Irish Sea. At around 2000 on Sunday night we headed out in 20 knots of breeze in a 6M Rib to try catch the 3 MOD70's which were competing, But unfortunately these were just too fast. Our next target was to try catch George David's Juan K Canting Keel Rambler 88 the next morning. We set off at around 5am in light winds and headed North to meet the boat as it passed The Maidens off Larne. We stayed with the boat for around 30 minutes and even though the breeze was only a Force 3, Rambler still was racing along at around 14 knots. We are interested in getting involved with some offshore sailing for the 2017/2018 season. As well as event coverage we'd love to sponsor a yacht for an online media campaign, including video, photography and social media.
