What happens when 20 men and 5 ladies from Vancouver go to St Maarten?

They set up a little mini race between themselves within the St. Maarten Heineken Regatta. This year sees three boats chartered by Vancouver sailors racing against each other in the beautiful waters around St. Maarten. Racing on chartered boats, the two teams of men - 10 on each boat, called Nauti Canucks 1 and Nauti Canucks 2 - and 5 lovely ladies racing on their boat, Salish Sisters are having lots of serious sailing and serious fun at the St. Maarten Heineken Regatta.
