Atlantic Cup



Finish the Caribbean season with a friendly cruise to the US East Coast from Nanny Cay on Tortola, British Virgin Islands. We sail first to St George's on Bermuda, then on to the US when there is a good weather and Gulf Stream forecast.
Join with the ARC Europe fleet for social activities in Nanny Cay, and meet with them again in Bermuda.
