The Guadeloupe to Antigua Race is a tradition that existed even before Antigua Sailing Week began 50 years
ago, and is organised in conjunction with Antigua Yacht Club and the Triskell Organisation in Guadeloupe.
The 42-nautical mile event provides great racing and an opportunity to enjoy the warm hospitality of the
event’s hosts in Guadeloupe, Triskell and the Village of Dehaies. It’s ideal or Caribbean cruisers because there
are no race marks – simply a start line in Guadeloupe and a finish line in Antigua.
The race will start on Friday, April 28 just north of Deshaies and finish off the Pillars of Hercules in English
Harbour, followed by a prize giving at Antigua Yacht Club at 5:30 pm.
The race record set by Mari-Cha IV of 2 hours, 18 minutes and 42 seconds in 2004 stood until it was smashed by Lloyd Thornburg’s MOD 70 trimaran Phaedo^3 in 2015 in an amazing 1 hour and 27 minutes!

The Peters & May Round Antigua Race will return in 2017 on Saturday, April 29. This exciting optional race is scored separately from the full week’s racing and provides crews with an opportunity to tour Antigua’s stunning coastline.
Many participants will try to break the existing monohull elapsed time record set in 2009 by AntiguaSailing Week’s 2011 overall winner, Sojana, of 4 hours, 37 minutes and 43 seconds. Sojana will be back for the 50th Antigua
Sailing Week and we’re all waiting to see which yachts will challenge her for the record!
The Peters & May Round Antigua Race will culminate in an awards presentation on the evening of Saturday, April 29 followed by the 50th Antigua Sailing Week welcome party in Nelson’s Dockyard
The Presidente Beer Gardens opens from 3pm to 6pm featuring entertainment from DJ Quest.
