Les Voiles de Saint Barth Gears Up

Fifty boats are expected to descend on St. Barth’s this weekend for the 2011 Les Voiles de Saint Barth. The number of boats participating this year has more than doubled since last year. With six classes competing, the race to watch is the re-match between George David’s Rambler skippered by Ken Read and Mike Read’s Leopard 3 after Read took the win earlier this month in the Carib 600. Each day of racing will be capped with a sound and light show as well as many post race parties. For more information, go to www.lesvoilesdesaintbarth.com.
