The event involves four days of high-performance coastal racing, with starts and finishes based out of English Harbour, Antigua.
Crew will need to find accommodation ashore for this event. Panacea will be based in Falmouth for this event but the exact location is still to be confirmed. Most accommodation options in this area are within walking distance of the yacht’s potential berth at either AYC in Falmouth or Nelson’s Dockyard, English Harbour.
