The Sint Maarten Heineken Regatta is an annual sailing event. For four days, in early March, crews from around the world gather on the island of Sint Marteen to race monohulls, multihulls, and large yachts. The competition is at world class level: many yachts have professional offshore crew on board.
Turquoise waters, steady trade winds, a pure Caribbean backdrop… the conditions are ideal. On shore, the atmosphere blends high-level competition with a festive and fun island vibe.
We propose a competitive vessel, allowing our guests to experience the event from the inside aboard the ORC57 Avel Vaez: you’ll likely finish among the front-runners…
We invite you to join our crew a few days before the first race start: you’ll be able to settle in comfortably on board, get to know everyone, and take your first sails to get familiar with the catamaran.
Early 2026, the Heineken Regatta will be the perfect opportunity to test our catamaran in real racing conditions!
Have you dreamed of experiencing life onboard — and maybe even buying an ORC57?
Join us: if you decide within the following 12 months to build an ORC57, ORC Catamarans commits to reimbursing the cost of your cruise aboard Avel Vaez.
An opportunity you don’t want to miss!
