Welcome to cruise-chat.

I've seen the yacht racing tour advertised for Nassau. They used to do it at Key West but I think that tour went out of business.

To the best of my knowledge Carnival offers it on certain itineraries. I'm not sure which ones.

We've done it twice (I was in charge of the mainsail winch, a hard job!), once in St. Maarten and I'm trying to remember where the other one was. In St. Maarten, I was in Stars & Stripes, and we came in second. The captains of those 12 meter yachts take these races really seriously!

Hi Sandy,

Hope you can remember where the second place was! meanwhile I will look into Nassau, we are coming from UK and ideally looking not to fly!

Thanks

Ali
