As the deadline for the first early registration discount approaches (March 31, 2022), We are happy to announce additional sponsorship for those boats shipping over seas by container or Ro/Ro.

We are able to increase sponsorship to $200.00 per boat for any boat shipping overseas.

Charter boats and new or used boats being sold to the US do not qualify for this sponsorship. So for those teams who consolidated their container loads and have 10 boats on board, they can get up to $2000.00 to help with shipping costs!

We are really excited about being able to offer this and thank our sponsors for this event…Immunolin, Andersen Tax, Gondelier Restaurants, Sheraton Sand Key Resort, Red Gear Racing, Clearwater and St Petersburg Yacht clubs. We also hope to have more coming on board soon to help make this event even better.

Red Gear Racing will sponsor $100.00 for each boat shipped in a shipping container from off shore or on a Rollon Rolloff trailer. That means for a container with 10 boats, $1000.00.

Boats left or sold in the US or chartered do not qualify for this sponsorship. We are working on additional help as well but this will help to get the ball rolling.

We have forms on the website to apply for charters as well.

Hecny Group is currently working with the regatta organizers to centralized and simplify the round trip shipping of your boats and gear. The services will include the booking, the trucking both at origin and in the USA, Origin and USA Customs and ocean freight to from the event.
