We are dedicated sailors, intent on bringing the many aspects of the sport to as many people as possible.
Our role is one of Bookings Management. We are here to serve both the Charter Client and the Yacht Owner. The Charter Client does not pay – the Yacht Owner does.
Why are we important?: We are administration orientated and consequently can respond to your enquiry with speed and efficiency. Owners are frequently involved in racing, travelling and boat maintenance. Their administration time is not only limited, but they are frequently away from their desks which is where they need to be to handle enquiries. Our Management Service ensures that you are responded to quickly and efficiently thereby maximising your chance of securing the booking you require.
Our owners acknowledge this and are happy to pay for our services.
Currently we provide this service for five pedigree yachts with proven track records. We are always looking for new exciting race yachts to get involved with.
Volvo 70 – Green Dragon
Green Dragon was specifically built as the Irish entry in the 2008-2009 Volvo Ocean Race, in which she finished 5th. In 2012 she took line honours in the Round Ireland Race.
The Volvo 70 is the former class of racing yachts designed for the Volvo Ocean Race. It was first used in the 2005–06 race (replacing the Volvo 60 yachts which were first used in 1993) and uses sliding daggerboards and a canting keel which is capable of canting transversely up to an angle of 40 degrees.
Charter Rates vary according to event.. Please Email us for a competitive offer.
