Summer Sailstice and Sunsail are very excited to be announcing the opportunity for any sailor to win a one-week, Sunsail BVI charter aboard a 40’ monohull by signing up and going sailing on the June 20th Summer Sailstice weekend. Sail on your own boat, crew on a friend’s boat or visit a local, community sailing center to get yourself on the water under sail.  Then, one-year later, you just might find yourself celebrating Summer Sailstice aboard a 40’ Sunsail sloop in the British Virgin Islands.  Sunsail’s 30 bases scattered in idyllic sailing destinations around the world will be joining you when you sign up to sail ‘with them’ on the first days of summer during the June 20th solstice weekend.

While sailing seasons vary from the BVI to Thailand to Turkey the opportunity to explore the world during the Summer Sailstice celebration is at its peak. In the Northern Hemisphere the days are long creating more time to enjoy for evening sails and more daylight hours of sailing for everyone.
