Oyster Antigua Regatta

Nelson's Dockyard, Antigua

Back in Oyster’s spiritual home in the Caribbean, Nelson’s Dockyard in English Harbour, the 2023 Oyster Antigua Regatta brought the Oyster family together for four days of action-packed racing and special celebrations.

We welcomed back the Oyster World Rally 2022-2023 fleet from their 16-month circumnavigation, and all Oyster owners were invited to attend a very special dinner to celebrate 50 years of Oyster Yachts.

The Regatta, now in its 45th edition, saw a combination of course racing and pursuit racing, and took the fleet up the east coast of the island for a night at a secluded anchorage. In true Caribbean style, the social programme did not disappoint, with drinks parties and steel bands, iconic sunsets and the legendary, Regatta finale party.

Dolphin Sails, Lewmar, The Glenturret and Antigua Distillery were the official Regatta partners for 2023 and were at the event supporting owners on the dock and onboard during races with their service teams.

Clean Oyster Regattas

Oyster Yachts are proud to have achieved Gold level certification for its sustainability efforts at the Antigua Regatta 2023.

We took the steps below to minimise the impact the event has on the environment:

  • All event documents were sent electronically via email and the Oyster app to reduce paper waste
  • No single-use plastics were supplied, and all caterers provided environmentally sound alternatives
  • Participants were given the opportunity to donate to local marine organisations - the Environmental Awareness Group Antigua and Antigua National Parks coral restoration and turtle conservation projects

We would like to thank all the participants who made smart choices to help protect the water and ecosystems we love so dearly and support this program.
