Enjoy this event with one of the Activ options:
- Charter a yacht for a full week of fantastic racing
- Reserve your place onboard for one or all of the week's races through the Activ Race Programme especially for individuals and small groups
- Impress your guests with VIP Hospitality on board a luxury cruiser or powerboat during the event
- Join us on the delivery cruise for some keen sailing via some of the west coast's picturesque coastline and the chance to experience some intense offshore sailing under the guidance of our professional crew.
With plenty of options, there's no reason to miss this great event. Check out our web sites at activ racing and activ power+sail
