SUMMARY:Tour des Yoles
DESCRIPTION:The Tour de Martinique des yoles rondes\, as it is known today\, was initiated by Georges Brival\, then president of the Yole Society. In 1984\, he organised the first edition in its current format\, held from 11 to 15 August. Eight crews took part\, covering 110 nautical miles. The event was an unexpected success and has taken place every year since. \n\n\n\nSailing boat races have long existed in Martinique. In earlier times\, regattas were contested using “gommiers”\, fishing boats named after the tree from which they were made. Local patron saint festivals often provided the opportunity to organise these races\, attracting large public interest. As the gommier gradually became less common in Martinique’s forests\, yoles progressively replaced it. This transition\, first observed in fishing practices\, naturally extended to competitive racing\, although the gommier has continued to be used. \n\n\n\nIn 2014\, marking 30 years since its creation\, 18 yoles rondes started the race from the beach in Fort-de-France. \n\n\n\nIn 2016\, the event entered the digital era with the launch of the Yole365 application\, followed by a website in 2017. Since 2014\, a simulation game called Yoles Martinique has been available on iOS and Android\, with updates released each year. \n\n\n\nThe construction process of the yole ronde of Martinique has been listed in the inventory of France’s intangible cultural heritage since 2017.

SUMMARY:BVI Virgin's Cup and Willy T Race
DESCRIPTION:BVI Virgin’s Cup and Willy T Race\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Virgin’s Race is one of the longest-standing events in the Royal BVI Yacht Club calendar\, with its inaugural edition held in 1975. Since 1990\, with the sponsorship of William Thornton\, it has been established as the Willy T Virgin’s Cup.  \n\n\n\nA distinctive feature of this race is that all participating boats must have a female skipper\, and in some years\, it has been required that 50% of the crew also be women. \n\n\n\nThe race culminates in a lively post-race party at the Willy T\, adding to its popularity and charm.

SUMMARY:Caribbean Multihull Challenge
DESCRIPTION:Caribbean Multihull Challenge: fast\, fun\, and all about catamarans and trimarans\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSint Maarten’s Caribbean Multihull Challenge (CMC) has quickly established itself as the must-sail event for performance cruising cats\, racing trimarans\, and everything in between.  \n\n\n\nHeld each year in late January – early February\, this regatta celebrates the speed\, innovation\, and spirit of multihull sailing in the Caribbean’s ideal conditions. \n\n\n\nNow in its growing seasons since its launch in 2019\, the CMC offers three days of exhilarating racing\, featuring: \n\n\n\n\nPoint-to-point distance races around the coastlines of Sint Maarten and nearby islands\n\n\n\nWindward/leeward buoy courses for competitive classes\n\n\n\nA dedicated Cruising Multihull class with shorter\, more relaxed courses\n\n\n\n\nEach year\, the fleet has grown to include a mix of high-performance trimarans\, charter cats\, and full-on race machines like MOD 70s and Gunboats. The event is known not just for the racing\, but also for its warm\, laid-back island vibe\, with nightly parties\, beachside dinners\, and a passionate sailing community. \n\n\n\nWhy CMC stands out:\n\n\n\nWhile most Caribbean regattas cater primarily to monohulls\, CMC puts multihulls front and centre.  \n\n\n\nWith growing industry support and a race program tailored to different performance profiles\, the event is increasingly seen as the Caribbean’s premier multihull regatta. \n\n\n\nWhether you’re racing for the podium or just for the ride\, the Caribbean Multihull Challenge delivers big breeze\, big fun\, and big rewards.
