Vasco da Gama Race benefits Yacht owners

10 April 2015

With the start of the Durban to Port Elizabeth Vasco da Gama race taking place on 25 April 2015, ABYC yacht owners are set to benefit as we make space for the 16 visitors to our humble abode. In addition there are three confirmed entries from East London for ABYC Week taking place from 1 to 3 May.

How will yacht owners benefit?

  • The hard standing is offering a free Lift Out AND In to all owners using the the Club crane – this is to help free up moorings for the incoming yachts.
  • Then the hard-standing will be free of charge until your mooring becomes available again (with a one week leeway to cater for logistical issues such as booking a mobile crane, weather, etc.)
  • This offer is also available to yacht owners wishing to use a mobile crane, although that lift must be paid for by the owner.

Contact Ann-Marie to book your slot – limited slots available.

There are two local ABYC boats entered in the Vasco – Nemesis and Wallbanger.
