Profile Sailing Cup 2008 (Hospitality, Travel and Tourism Sector)
16-17 September 2008
For the second year running, Ondeck Sailing, Britannia Corporate Events and Profile Sailing are delighted to have teamed up to stage the PROFILE SAILING CUP on the 16th and 17th September 2008.
The event is being organised for companies working in the Hospitality and Travel Industry and for Tourist Authorities. There will also be a limited number of professional firms involved in the industry, such as Banks, Construction Companies, Property Advisers and Lawyers.
We are delighted to confirm that 3 of this year’s entries, The Dorchester, Berkeley and Mandarin Oriental London have already confirmed their places for 2008 and we are particularly pleased to be able announce that our dinner in Cowes on Tuesday 16th will take place at a leading Cowes yacht club.
We are confident that all those participating in the Profile Sailing Cup will find it a valuable way to raise their awareness and network within the industry, entertain clients and reward employees and we are particularly pleased to have the Dorchester Hotel as our lifestyle partner. A networking and social programme will be combined with a comprehensive, yet accessible, race series staged in Hamble, Cowes and on the Solent.
Up to 20 Beneteau First 40.7s are available; the 40.7 is one of the most popular cruiser racers on the market and provides exhilarating sailing without the need for a team of professional sailors, although each yacht will have an experienced skipper and crew provided, safety being of prime importance. With its resolutely modern design, the First 40.7 is a true pleasure to sail on; the beautiful hull lines, clean deck layout, and comfortable interior all add up to a fast and functional yacht.
