RESERVE YOUR BOAT
Reasonable charters are available for teams traveling a long distance and for crews that do not own a boat. All teams chartering must provide their own sails. International teams may want to consider a boat exchange with a local team interested in traveling to a regatta in their country, for example a boat in Miami for the Junior World Championship in 2024.
DB Marine and Persson boats will be available.
