Nelson\u2019s Dockyard welcomed sailors from all over the world to the Copper & Lumber Store Hotel for a weather and safety briefing ahead of Antigua Sailing Week\u2019s 4-day round-the-island regatta. Race officer Chris Mansfield discussed the light air forecasted for Thursday\u2019s start.

\u201cThe cruisers will start first and have a laid-back ride to Green Island,\u201d he said after the briefing. \u201cThe racers will have a challenging test ahead of them,\u201d he added. \u201cThe boats that perform best tomorrow will be the ones who are gentlest with their manoeuvres. In this kind of weather, you have to move around the boat like a cat.\u201d<\/p>

Skippers’ Briefing ahead of the first day of sailing from English Harbour to Green Island \u00a9 Tim Wright Photoaction.com\/ASW                                           
During the briefing, presented by The Residences at Nikki Beach Resort & Spa<\/a>, ASW President Alison Sly-Adams outlined the week\u2019s entertainment which includes a barefoot barbecue at Green Island hosted by Falmouth Ocean Club, steel pan music at The Hut, and a beach festival with vendors and live music at Ffryes Beach. Sailors then sipped on Nautical Nomads<\/em>, Nikki Beach\u2019s signature cocktail. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

 
Cruiser Nancy Karr said that in addition to the entertainment ashore, she\u2019s most looking forward to the camaraderie aboard the 36-foot catamaran Tropic Bird<\/em>. \u201cThe joy of having 5 people on the boat,\u201d she pointed out. \u201cIt\u2019s all fun and no stress.\u201d
 
Class 2 racer Hans Voorn aboard Contigo \u2013 Team Hi-1<\/em> said the crew\u2019s spirits are high and he anticipates all of what makes a good day on the water. \u201cSailing, sun, and fun \u2013 that\u2019s all we need. And winning,\u201d he added. \u201cWe want to win!\u201d<\/p>
