Caribbean Sailing Association: 2026 Rally Calendar Announcement
The Caribbean Sailing Association is thrilled to unveil its new Rally Calendar for 2026, designed for cruising sailors eager to explore the vibrant waters of the Caribbean in the company of fellow adventurers.
Our calendar features an exciting lineup of events tailored to unite sailors while enjoying organized cruising experiences. Highlights include renowned World Cruising Club events, engaging gatherings with the Salty Dawg Association, and an array of exhilarating regattas across the region that offer a dedicated rally class.
Manager of St. Maarten Yacht Club Saskia Revelman says, “Our rally class at the Caribbean Mulithull challenge is a very popular format, especially as it’s the only dedicated multihull regatta in the region and for 2025 we are adding a class to the Course D’Alliance which takes sailors from St Maarten to Anguilla & St Barths.’’.

Antigua Sailing Week is also making changes to its format for 2026 which sees a return to destination sailing around Antigua and will offer both racing classes and a rally option perfect for cruisers.
Organiser Alison Sly-Adams says, “With the separation of the racing classes into a new earlier racing event, it’s created the opportunity for us to return to the original concept of the event which focussed on fun at a different location each evening.”
‘With events spanning from Barbados to Puerto Rico and many islands in between we are delighted that our members are developing event which are more inclusive and unite sailors for the simple joy of sailing.” says CSA President Bastien Pouthier.
