A GRAND FINALE – 41st BVI Spring Regatta & Sailing Festival
Billl Alcott’s STP65 EquationA southeasterly breeze of about 12-15 knots emanating from Dead Chest Island, provided shifty conditions for a tense last day of racing at the BVI Spring Regatta & Sailing Festival. Today all classes raced in the Sir Francis Drake Channel outside Nanny Cay and there was a lot of traffic to contend with. Probably the most important factor was staying in clear air and spotting the shifts as they whipped over and around the chain of islands on the south side of the Channel.
Regatta Chairman, Bob Phillips has been on the water every day during the regatta and he is rightly proud of the 2012 edition: “Above all, sailors love sailing and the BVI Spring Regatta has an excellent race area. In the present economic climate an entry of 100 boats has got to be seen as a success, especially as we have attracted larger yachts including seven Swans and the STP 65, Equation. However, the BVI Spring Regatta & Festival is not just about the big boats. This year the event celebrates its 41st year and it has always been about providing good racing for a wide variety of people on the race course and great entertainment back on the shore.”
Another day of hot racing in BVI Spring Regatta

Virtually all racing and cruising classes were sent through The Cut, a narrow gap between Tortola and St. John, whatsmore there were a multitude of downwind starts, resulting in some fantastic action from the get go. As the fleet came up on the wind at Soper’s Hole, the scenery was nothing short of spectacular; Little Thatch and Great Thatch Islands offer some of the most outstanding vistas anywhere in the Caribbean. This amazing scenery was given an out-of-this world experience due to a very close encounter with Paradox, as the giant trimaran cut through the fleet.
Great start to first day of BVI Spring Regatta
;)
The racing fleet head towards the infamous Dead ChestRacing in the BVI Spring Regatta started on schedule, 15 knots of solid breeze intensified during the morning, peaking at 18 knots to provide some fantastic racing conditions for the opening day of the BVI Spring Regatta. Many classes enjoyed the fantastic vista of the southeasterly face of Salt Island today. With knarled rock formations and spectacular reefs, the windward side of Salt Island is one of the most hauntingly beautiful areas of the BVI.
Class 1 was first away, beating up the Sir Francis Drake Channel heading for Cooper Island. Bill Alcott’s STP65, Equation led the charge, heading in close to Nanny Cay, giving the spectators on the beach a full and frank demonstration of the awesome Mini Maxi. Equation was first to round Cooper Island hoisting their enormous asymmetric spinnaker to spear off downwind in the Caribbean swell. However, around the back of Cooper Island, Equation found a hole in the wind and was slowed for some time. Passion 4C, steered by Admiral’s Cup winner, Stefan Lehnert looked to have got their tactics spot on by choosing the right hand side of the course on the beat, benefiting from less current and corrected out to win Race 1 by two minutes. However, Equation came back with a strong challenge to win the next two races, both by over 7 minutes to lead the class after the first day with Passion 4C, just one point behind in second place.
