The weeklong BVI Spring Regatta & Sailing Festival takes you throughout the beautiful British Virgin Islands. Starting at Nanny Cay, the Sailing Festival is two days of warm up racing.
Then the BVI Spring Regatta kicks off three days of some of the best racing in the Caribbean. Only the best survive to take home the Gold and the Glory, along with great stories and experiences that keep sailors coming back year after year.
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.
24th Day 1 is the Scrub Island International Race .
25th Nanny Cay Cup - Round Tortola race
26th Lay Day
27th, 28th , 29th 3 days racing as the Spring Regatta
St Thomas International Regatta [also known as STIR] is based around the St Thomas Yacht Club. Lively, friendly with great sailing and not so big you get lost in the crowds.
Training is on the 2nd April , 3rd is the Round the Rocks Race and is a good opportunity to dust the cobwebs off before the main racing starts Fri-Sun - three days of highly competitive racing in what are usually strong breezes.
As with ALL Ondeck's events - No experience is necessary.
For booking, please contact peter@ondecksailing.com for more information.

The RORC Caribbean 600 is now one of the worlds premier racing events, with many different legs around the Caribbean islands, sail changes, wind shifts and the cream of world offshore racing to compete within the comparative warmth of the Caribbean.
The main 600 race will set off from Fort Charlotte, just outside English Harbour in Antigua. Heading north, the fleet will pass a mark off Barbuda, Nevis, Saba and St Barth's before circling St Maarten and heading down the west coast and round the south of Guadeloupe.
Finally you will head back north to a mark off Barbuda, across to the tiny but spectacular 'Kingdom of Redonda' before returning to Antigua
This exciting event attracts an incredible fleet including some of the top racers in the world but at the same time has plenty to offer enthusiastic amateurs and first time offshore racers.
The Nelson’s Cup Series is a great addition offering three days of inshore racing. Spirit of Juno will be entering.
