COURSES

There will be a variety of courses for all classes for each race of Antigua Sailing Week 2025 with several course options for each race to be chosen by the Race Officer immediately prior to the race, depending on the size of boats in the class and current weather conditions. Options will range from very short courses for small boats in light wind conditions, to much longer courses for bigger boats in heavy wind conditions. The objective is to have every boat racing for approximately three to four hours on each day. If there are two races in a day, it is anticipated that the total racing time will not exceed four hours.
