First boats sign for 2012



First boats sign for Atlantic Cup 2011
January 17, 2012

The first boats have signed-up for Atlantic Cup 2012, which starts from Nanny Cay Marina on Tortola BVI on May 3.
Returning 2011 Caribbean 1500 ralliers include Steve Black with Madrugada, and Charles Hodge and Cathy Chu with Little Harbor 44 Surprise.  
Stuart and Pat Smith from Britain are joining with their new Discovery 55 Brizo, fresh from sailing across the Atlantic with the ARC 2011.
Escapade and Field Trip are a matching (almost!) pair of Antares catamarans.

The Atlantic Cup in 2010 saw strong winds in Bermuda, keeping the fleet in harbor a few days longer.  The rally team pulled out the stops and organized a range of activities to keep the crews occupied.  Chris Holm of Skitterygusset was impressed: Getting stuck in Bermuda really showed the old Carib1500 group that you guys were willing to go to any length to help the crews. I know I will go with you again.”
