We’re really excited that in 2025, in addition to regatta racing and day charters, CRUSADE will once again be available for ‘term charters’ which could be anything from a long weekend’s cruise to a 2-3 week holiday.

Tailor-made to suit the client’s wishes, there will opportunities to cruise to the West Country, the Scilly Isles, Ireland, the Channel Islands, and France.

There are no set dates and no set itineraries and the likelihood is that these trips will be available from the middle of April through May and June, most of August and into September.

And if you book before December 31st you’ll get 15% OFF the published rates.

Call or email now to find out more.

And for those interested in RORC racing, with CRUSADE already booked for the 2025 Rolex Fastnet, now is the perfect time to be looking ahead and planning a 2026 campaign. The 2026 RORC calendar includes short races like the Morgan Cup, cross channel racing to Le Havre or St Malo, as well as the iconic 700 NM Round Ireland race, and the ultimate challenge – and one that only comes around every four years, the 1805 NM Sevenstar Round Britain and Ireland race that takes place in August 2026.

We can tailor individual packages that include training weekends and the opportunity for a family cruise to or from the start/finish of events such as the Round Ireland race and La Trinité.

So if you’re an established sailing team looking to charter a safe, fast, comfortable (and not to mention legendary) classic yacht with just an owner’s rep, let’s have a chat.

Wishing everyone a happy, healthy and peaceful time over the christmas period and throughout the year ahead and we very much look forward to welcoming you on board CRUSADE for some fabulous sailing and holiday fun in 2025.
