English Harbor, Antigua
West Indies
The Sailing Vessel Solstice (Cape George 31) is bound for the Caribbean to race the Antigua Classic Yacht Regatta... YOU CAN SAIL ABOARD Solstice as an ACTIVE PARTICIPANT. This unique opportunity puts you at the helm, on the sheets, and in the action. You'll be in the front row of the greatest classic yachting event; you'll be RACING IT yourself!
Captain Paul Exner leads this exciting opportunity from aboard his classic yacht Solstice, the cutter-rigged vessel Exner built from a bare hull... Who better to sail with than a professional yacht racer with over 30 years racing experience, a builder of his own vessel, and a passionately committed instructor of sailboat racing!
Whether you're new to sailboat racing, or have the hankering to sail hard with a winning racing captain, or just want to experience an international Classic Yachting Event and its shore-side festivities... for $350/Race-Day aboard Solstice, you'll have your own accommodation aboard the yacht, a locker to store your personal gear, breakfasts and lunches for each race day, and intensive hands-on racing participation and instruction from Captain Exner. You'll finish this event from the vantage of having experienced and immersed yourself fully in classic yachting!
