Overseas Sailing Opportunities
Our Past…..
• Heavily concentrated on the British Virgin Islands– Traditionally has been a very positive experience for
Club members.– Booked in July/off season to take advantage of
discounts (10 days for the price of 7)– Last year (July 14) we chartered 3 x 45’ Monohulls for a
total of 17 people• Low turnout• “Intuition/feeling” is we need a new location to avoid the
“been there and done that feeling”.
Our Future?• Where do YOU want to go next….????• Considering 3 options– “The Med”: Greece, Croatia, Turkey– “The Carib”: Bahamas– Avoided the Pacific considerations due to cost and
time disadvantages
