Welcome to the world of Blue Water Rallies.

We pride ourselves in being experts at supporting yachts as they move around the world, and in creating rallies of a convivial, happy nature; where our participants revel in the pleasures of getting to know each other well and building strong relationships.

Our 2007-2009 Blue Water round-the-world Rally returned safely to the Mediterranean in April 2009 and our current 2009-20011 Blue Water Rally, left Gibraltar at the end of October 2009 to begin their own 'voyage of a lifetime' which will see them return to the Mediterranean in 18 months time.

Rally Antigua and the Yachting Monthly Biscay Triangle, our other events, are continuing to provide an introduction to long-distance cruising and have been well received over the years by all who have participated in them.

Our website contains details and stories from our Rallies - stories of ordinary, cruising sailors with no aspirations for the different challenges of racing, fulfilling their dream of circumnavigating the world in their own yachts, accompanied by families and friends.

Just as my wife and I did, past participants have found the experience a mixture of excitement, adventure and fascination particularly seeing how other people and cultures exist in our world. Above all, the Rally ethos of being there for each other and the support of a dedicated team have helped them to make the voyage really good fun.

Once you have read these web pages I hope you will join us in 'sailing the dream' - something which is in the hearts of most, if not all, cruising yachtsmen."
