BEHIND THE SCENES: NORTH SAILS AT THE ST BARTHS BUCKET SUPERYACHT REGATTA
Watch as Our Experts Work Around the Clock to Keep the Boats Racing
The North Sails commitment to our sport and the art of sail repair knows no bounds, evidenced as a team from North Sails Palma takes their show on the road to ensure clients are race-ready at the St Barths Bucket Regatta. The portable onsite North Sails loft is a testament to the lengths North will go to offer an easy and accessible solution for all boats competing. It may be a bit of an understatement to call the loft in St Barths “portable” as the service team from Palma brings everything they need, literally from floor to ceiling, to create an environment uniquely suited to handle the logistical needs of superyacht sail repair.
Tune in for a behind-the-scenes look at how service expert Brad Favelle and his team work around the clock, repairing any rips, tears, or fails throughout the regatta; a service offered to all participating yachts. It’s hard work with long crazy hours, but if you stop to ask any of the guys where they would rather be, the answer is unanimously “nowhere.”
North Sails supports dozens of boats across the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race fleet with tailored products and best-in-class support. Mark Bradford, Managing Director of North Sales Australia, provides this year's race preview.
