Transatlantic Eastbound Sail Antigua – UK 2026

After a busy winter season in the Caribbean, Sail Racing Academy will be heading back to the UK from Antigua via the Azores.

This passage is a cost-shared trip, with crew contributing towards the running and operating costs of the voyage only.

It offers participants the opportunity to take part in an Atlantic crossing and experience life offshore, as well as the chance to visit the beautiful Azores en route. Exact departure and arrival dates are flexible, depending on weather and passage planning. From the Azores, crew are welcome to disembark, or continue with us as we return the fleet to Hamble.

While Sail Racing Academy is committed to creating an enjoyable and inclusive experience for everyone on board, safety remains our top priority. For peace of mind, we have ensured the vessel is equipped and maintained to a high standard throughout.
