It's "go time" for the 7th edition of Les Voiles de St. Barth! Monday, April, 11th: Official Opening of Les Voiles de St. Barth 2016 - more info: http://www.lesvoilesdesaintbarth.com/site/us/

It's show time - Les Voiles de Saint Barth 2016 : Les Voiles de Saint Barth 2016: "Plenty of recognizable names -both in terms of boats and people – will attend, starting with the returning 100-foot speed machine Comanche and its celebrity owners Jim and Kristy Hinze-Clark and skipper Ken Read, who is at once one of the most celebrated sailors in the world and the 2016 event's “Godfather”, chosen by the organizers to oversee the spirit of the event. Then there's the mighty multihull Phaedo3 and its skipper Lloyd Thornburg, who has made it his mission to break any and all speed records he can…and he has. Add to that the new 100-foot technological wonder Galateia; an excellent gathering of three Volvo boats (Brunel, SFS and Ambersail, with Bouwe Bekking, Lionel Pean and Linas Ivanauskas in charge, respectively); two Maxi 72s (Dieter Schoen’s Momo and George Sakellaris’s Proteus); the 94′ Windfall(Tim Goodbody); 92-foot La Bête (Yves Montanari); and 82′ Highland Fling XI(Irvine Laidlaw) and you’ve got quite a spectacle percolating on the big-boat end of things...."

Les Voiles de St. Barth 2015 Edition : day one video above

Les Voiles de St. Barth: This is It - Les Voiles de Saint Barth 2015 : Les Voiles de Saint Barth 2015: "Headlining as a first-time matchup between the marine industry’s newest break-through speed creations are Comanche and Rambler. A balance of eight other Maxis between 63 and 90 feet in length with highly recognizable names such as Bella Mente, Lucky, Odin, Lupa of London, Selene and Aragon makes this the most formidable Maxi Division that has shown up here since the regatta’s inception six years ago. Extremely tight competition also will be found in five Spinnaker Division classes as well as in classes for Racing Multihull, Non-Spinnaker and Melges 24 one-designs. Forerunners in these classes will no doubt distinguish themselves before the Lay Day on Thursday (April 16), if not sooner. (The second half of racing for Les Voiles de St. Barth resumes on Friday and Saturday, April 17th and 18th, for a total of four racing days.)... "
