Port Louis Marina located in Grenada in the Southern Caribbean will be the penultimate stop for the 22 Oyster yachts who will have travelled from Cape Town, South Africa; a mammoth crossing of 5,500nm taking upwards of six weeks with the fleet stopping en-route at St Helena and Fernando de Noronha, expected arrival in Grenada in February 2025.
Allie Smith, Director of the Oyster World Rally at Oyster Yachts Ltd. said: “Grenada is the first safe island in the southern Caribbean after sailing up through the Atlantic Ocean. It has great services and provides an opportunity for any servicing and repairs for the Oyster World Rally fleet prior to their final passage to Antigua, which marks the completion of the Oyster World Rally. Port Louis Marina was chosen as it is a quality marina, run by a trusted brand, Camper and Nicholsons.”
Zara Tremlett CMM at Port Louis Marina said: “We are thrilled to continue the relationship between both Oyster and Camper & Nicholsons, two highly esteemed brands in the yachting industry and both British brands working together is a fantastic partnership. This will be the 4th time that we have welcomed the Oyster World Rally fleet to Port Louis Marina and are delighted each time to welcome an awe-inspiring fleet of yachts and their owners. We know that the Oyster World Rally is an experience of a life-time, and we really look forward to welcoming the yachts to our marina.”
