Corporate Sailing Regattas

       

Introduction
An EastSail corporate sailing regatta on Sydney Harbour, offers a unique and thrilling teambuilding experience. Participants sail aboard our fleet of performance Beneteau & Sydney yachts. Each team is led by a highly qualified and experienced skipper who will guide and encourage everyone to take an active part in the steering and sailing of the yacht. The sailing regatta course is strategically planned for the prevailing winds and to take the yachts close to many of Sydney Harbour's best attractions. These regattas are a perfect corporate team building event on Sydney Harbour, they are exciting, and for extra action look at our regatta enhancements such as yachting photographer, spectator boat, team caps, prizes and catering and drinks packages.

EastSail's regattas are an adventurous, inexpensive and healthy event to enhance your conference, company client day, or for staff teambuilding. We can organise sailing regattas for groups of all sizes - from 10 people match racing on 2 yachts to 300 people on 30 yachts. Minimum group size - 10 guests. Please call Jane on +612 9327 1166 or email her on jane@eastsail.com.au to discuss your corporate sailing event.
