Oyster BVI 2015 Regatta

First class results from this year’s Oyster BVI regatta. For another year Dolphin had a strong showing of customers, with 60% of the fleet all sporting our sails. This year our customers dominated the results in Class 2 taking the top four podium places. A special congratulations must also be given to Oyster 72 ‘Infiniti of Cowes’ who’s new DYS Dyneema headsails which were delivered before the regatta helped her to win every race in Class 2.

Amongst the entrants where many previous and regular customers to these Oyster regattas along with some new faces who made their first ARC trip to be part of this excellent ran regatta.
Once such new entrant was ‘Atalanta’ Oys 575 who after being commissioned last summer made their way from the UK, through the Med to start the ARC on their first Atlantic crossing.

It is always good to meet our customers and talk to them on their experience’s and gain valuable feedback on our product. It also gives us a good opportunity to discuss with them any new sail setups that they may benefit from for future passages or regattas. Such new sail setup options that are regularly discussed are Twin headstay or Karver Top down furlers which can be easily added to their existing inventories

 

Again we would like to thank all our customers throughout the fleet for their hospitality and support they gave to our team during the regatta
