I have no idea for sure but I am wondering if someone paid some $$ to be listed as the "official" spectator boat and to get connected with the Regatta website?

We did an all-day Regatta boat trip the very first time I went to Regatta; it left a lot to be desired but that was due to a lot of circumstances that should not have happened. Really bad beer (Bergen Brau), the boat was oversold (overcrowded), we basically went outside of Marigot and sat the entire day and then got stuck on a sandbar coming back into the lagoon via Sandy Ground. That was a long day but we met some nice people on the boat that day.

I think a day on No 1 SXM would be nice and it would be much more intimate but there is nothing wrong with going on The Tango if you want a shorter day.

As was stated earlier, Pieter and Mirian do a great job. They are already fully booked on Sat. and Fri. is almost full.

Good luck with your decision.
