Saint Barths Bucket Regatta, Saint Barthelemy, Caribbean 2011 takes place between 24th and 27th March and this year is the twenty fifth year celebration event of the Buckets.
It was in Nantucket that the first Bucket Regatta was “launched” by the captain of the eighty two foot Volodor, a Huisman Ketch, Roger Janes along with the captains of Flying Goose and Mandalay. Since then the event has gone from strength to strength becoming the main Mega Yacht Regatta until the last in 2001 when the event moved to Newport.
The St. Barths Bucket began in 1995 with four boats, Sariyah, Gleam, Mandalay and Parlay. The event flourished and now it is a major event limited to thirty yachts with a main emphasis on a fun, enjoyable event with little import on winning. Win the party is what it’s all about.
The Saint Barths Bucket regatta is a beautiful spectacle for participants and onlookers.
