Atlantic Rally for Cruisers 2003 ARC PREVIEW OYSTER TAKES TOP SPOT Once again, ARC entries have eclipsed the previous year with the ARC2003 entry list closing after the 225th yacht – the maximum number - was accepted on 9 May, two weeks earlier than last year’s record breaker. Commenting on the continuing success of the ARC, director of World Cruising Club, Andrew Bishop, said: "Last year was incredible, with a full list much earlier than expected, however entries for this year have been steadily flooding in since the end of ARC2002 and we are delighted at how quickly the event has filled up." Oyster takes the top spot as the most predominant constructor in this year’s event with a total of 19 Oysters entered. In fact, cumulatively, Oyster yachts have been the most prolific participants in the event since it began in 1985. Oyster will as usual be sending a service team to Las Palmas to provide a complimentary pre-start service to the Oyster fleet. It’s expected that many ARC Oysters will also be taking part in the UBS Oyster Regatta in Palma, Mallorca, which will take place from 3 to 7 September, in the build-up to the ARC.

However, even an Oyster with its high production standards will need careful specification of equipment before undertaking such a cruise, which is where Yachting World can help. Yachting World’s popular Ocean Ready series, published every month, listens to what the sailors out there and cruising now have to say about everything from communications to generators, watermakers to autopilots and distills this hard learned practical experience into impartial advice. Backed up by equipment surveys based on hundreds of thousands of sailing miles we’ll help you make your cruising dream a success – and save you making some expensive mistakes as well.
