29th ANNUAL BVI SPRING REGATTA BIGGER FOR THE BIG BOATS

The 29th annual BVI Spring Regatta is set for April 6-9, 2000 and will be seeing some format changes and expansion to accommodate growing demand and increasingly varied fleets and requirements.

The BVI Spring Regatta is now part of two major Caribbean racing series: the Caribbean Big Boat Series (CBBS) which includes the Caribbean's yachting triumvirate of Antigua Sailing Week (April 30-May 6), the Heineken Regatta, St Maarten (March 3,4,5) and the Spring Regatta; and the Caribbean Ocean Racing Triangle (CORT) series - first stop is the Heineken International Cup in Puerto Rico on March 24,25,26 with the Rolex International Cup in St Thomas on April 21,22,23.

To accommodate the CBBS and in response to yacht owners' requests for more racing and more distance, the BVI Spring Regatta is going to increase the racing for the Big Boat Fleet by two days and include some round island races. "We're always seeking ways to improve the regatta and we listen to what the competitors have to say - we're responding to demand. The Big Boat owners want to stretch their legs on longer courses and we're happy to oblige," said Bob Phillips, chairman of the BVI Spring Regatta. Registration for the Big Boats will take place on April 4th with the first race at 10.00am on April 5th.

Plans are also being made to add some destination races for the rest of the fleet as well. "A few years ago people got bored with round island racing and wanted course racing, but the tide has now turned and we're getting more and more requests for round the island racing. However, we'll make sure that we have sufficient races under our belt before we send people off for the day," continued Mr Phillips. Registration willtake place on April 6th with the first race at 10.00am on April 7th.
