Cowes Week 2010 - 31 July to 7 August

When seven yachts signed up for the first organised yacht race at Cowes on 10th August 1826, it is unlikely anyone envisaged that this would become the annual world-class yachting event that we now know as Cowes Week. With over 1,000 yachts and 8,500 competitors taking part in some very challenging first-class sailing, the event attracts a wide range of local, national and international entrants, from true amateurs to Olympic and World champions.

Throughout the world, Cowes is known as the home of yachting and yacht racing and Cowes Week is now a ‘must attend’ event in the corporate and social calendar.

Competing

Yacht racing is a brilliant way of entertaining your clients. We can supply various packages to suit your everyday requirements from transportation to accommodation.

Why not have a yacht for the week-long event and rotate your clients or customers on a daily basis? This has proven to be the best way of entertaining large numbers of people without the extra cost of chartering more yachts.

Spectating

You may be sponsoring a yacht or have a team competing, or maybe you want a slice of the action without having to race.

This is the answer for you - we have a variety of powerboats, ribs and motor cruisers with large platforms from which to view the racing. Add to this a luxury buffet lunch and all the drinks you want, what could be better!

Logistics

We can provide all manner of services to aid your events during Cowes Week. We can provide either shore side accommodation or yacht accommodation depending on your preferences and provide all necessary transport arrangements.

We offer both a free service to and from the Cowes in one of our 7.8m Ribcraft RIBs, or a personal trip for just you and your guests. If you choose the personal touch then the RIB would be yours for the entire week which enables you to use it both for transport and as a personal photography boat just for your crew.

Cowes Week offers something for everyone, with its exciting racing schedule and varied shore side activities all helping to ensure a unique festival atmosphere and week of corporate entertaining not to be missed.
