Warm up your winter and join KSC in the spectacular British Virgin Islands for our annual trip to the Caribbean!
Ready for your next unforgettable sailing adventure?
This 1 week Club cruise is aboard 40-45’ monohulls. The exact timing is flexible in the planning stage so we can find the best week that works for all members interested. We aim for one of the last two weeks in January.
Budgetary pricing is $4800/ cabin and will be confirmed once we have our groups committed to a particular week.
We plan these trips on a first come, first served basis and we need 3 members committed to booking cabins in order to make a boat reservation. So, if you know you want to go, get your order in early! Every third commitment coming in will allow us to reserve another boat. We often charter multiple boats but they do run out of boats quickly so the earlier we commit, the greater the chance of getting the boats/ dates we want.
The invitation will remain open so if you do decide in a couple of months you want to come along, let us know and if we can form the group of three and IF there are still boats available, we’ll try to get you in.
THE BOAT
Each cabin has a double bunk, accommodating one or two people. You will be buying the cabin space so it’s up to you whether you come alone or bring a cabin partner. Non-sailors are welcome to join so feel free to bring them along. Adults only please.
Some participants will be coming along for the cruise, others to complete certifications along the way. Pricing includes the boat, your skipper/instructor. If you are wanting to certify in US SAILING Bareboat Cruising and/or NauticEd SLC then those class and certification fees are also included. Flights and food not included.
Please let us know if you are considering this trip by August 20th, if possible. It would be helpful to know if you have a hard requirement for a particular week or could make any option.
We will need to get boats booked by the end of August. In order to secure the boats, the Club has to pay upfront. As such, we will ask you for non-refundable payment before reserving the boat.
We will also be holding an information evening in our classroom in the next few weeks for those interested in finding out more.
Below is the layout of a typical boat we charter. The exact boat may differ.
