Yachting Monthly Biscay Triangle 2006

The
Yachting Monthly Biscay Triangle is an annual 3-week cruising rally for
yachtsmen wishing to experience a long-range cruise in company. The
Rally provides camaraderie and professional support and will benefit
both experienced long-distance cruising yachtsmen and those wishing to
extend their sailing experience in a fully-supported, club-style
cruising event.

The departure and return are made
at Torquay, where a warm reception is always assured by the Royal
Torbay Yacht Club. At the end of a 500-mile passage to La Coruña in
North-West Spain, the club-style ethos of the event is underlined by
our rally hosts at the Real Club Nautico of La Coruña and at the
Société Nautique at La Trinité in South Brittany. The Yachting Monthly
Biscay Triangle commences in late July and lasts 3 weeks, providing
sufficient time for joining in Torquay and for returning home after the
event.
