Sailing regattas bring corporate teams together for some friendly competition on the water. The locations, hardware and trimmings of a sailing regatta make it one of the best corporate incentive event activities.

Team sailing regattas represent one of the best corporate incentive event activities available. They feature quality hardware, film-set locations, and competitive races that evolve despite fluctuating fortunes.

Sailing novices can contribute meaningfully to their vessel's performance under the supervision of a qualified skipper.

Sailing is a taste of the high life while offering a throwback to nature. With a total reliance on wind, sailing can offer a real detox experience from our digitally intensive lives.

Few competitive team event activities offer inclusivity while still being a highly technical sport - sailing really does deliver.

Sailing on an incentive event

Under the guidance of a skipper, teams are assigned tasks on boats that tack and manoeuvre, trying to get the best of the wind while marginalising the conditions for rival yachts. A bit like a game of chess on water, but instead of retro furniture, there is usually some of the best natural eye-candy imaginable.

Whilst a highly technical sport, sailing actually offers a really inclusive experience, with novice sailors being given important roles on the yachts.

Sailing offers a variety of craft and racing formats. Dinghies can be sailed single-handed and are fantastic fun, whereas bigger boats require the supervision of a skipper, and crews work as a team. Rules can be as basic as the first to get around some buoys, right through to flagged starts and trophies.

Skippers or support boats are often on hand to capture fantastic images of the teams as they skim across the water - something to take back to the office, even if it isn't the winner's cup.
