Dubois Cup 2009

"The Dubois Cup 2009 was a wonderful gathering of beautiful yachts in a friendly, family atmosphere.  The racing was exciting and parties are still being talked about!"

Sarah Fraser - Charter Broker, Dubois Yachts

"...It's such a beautiful location and the Yacht Club here put a fantastic event on"

Rodney Martin, Fitzroy Yachts

"Any opportunity you get to sail on the boats and see how they actually work in practice is always good from a designer’s point of view.  You get a lot of feedback from crew and see how things operate.  It’s always very beneficial."

Jerry Turner, Dubois Naval Architects

Dubois Cup 2009

"I was invited onboard as a guest of one of the owners and much to my surprise he let me take the helm, so I’ve had a wonderful two days!"

David Tydeman, Oyster

Dubois Cup 2009

"This is probably one of the best places in the world to have a regatta such as this.  We feel a regatta like this gives the owners a better understanding of how they can sail the boats"

"All participants and the owners themselves, really enjoy themselves here.  They can relax, they're comfortable and they can come here for what they want to do which is sailing, that’s what we are all here for"

Toby Allies, Pendennis Shipyard

Mark Hauser, Southern Spars

Dubois Cup 2009

"The colour of the water, the islands around here and the organisation are just fantastic, and look at all the boats on the Quay!"

Owner, Salperton

Dubois Cup 2009

"It's fun, it's family and it also supports a very worthy cause.  These boats aren’t flat out racing yachts, they're fast cruising yachts but people like to race them and have fun, they get together, they meet other yacht owners, owners of which we designed.  So it’s a bit of a family and there seems to be continual enthusiasm for this wonderful sailing."
