The destination is the Bahamas, the reason (as if one is necessary) is sailing and the opportunity is rare!
Existing in North eastern Bahamas, the untouched archipelago of spectacular Islands and cays known as Abaco is the destination in which the 32nd Abaco Regatta will be held.
Florida Agents for Seawind, Steve and Tanya Marsh of The Finish Line, have organised Seawind owners to participate in the regatta that will see the catamarans sail through the magnificent clear, turquoise water and witness the picture perfect scenery that seems to be only reserved for postcards.
