Organising a Team Building Sailing Day, is a complex and multifaceted process. And one that the team here at Britannia Events take great care and dedication in doing. Each of our Corporate Sailing Days are planned with your needs at the heart, ensuring your day is as bespoke as you are.
It begins with selecting the right dates – and the Solent, known for its ideal sailing conditions, is a popular sailing haven all year round.
Exhilarating sailing is something that you can bet will be on the cards, no matter what month you choose to sail with us from our base in Port Hamble Marina. Once dates are secured, the team begins planning your event with you, making sure we take every detail into consideration to ensure you have your day, your way.
“I attended a one day corporate sailing regatta organised by Britannia Sailing in July 2024. It was my 3rd time attending and I will be back again in 2025. Britannia run excellent sailing regattas. Their boats are excellent, they have top quality professional skippers, the organisation is great and the races they run are extremely good fun. Top that off with an excellent BBQ in the evening, and you have a recipe for a great day’s corporate sailing. Highly recommended.” – Edmund Wilson, Britannia Corporate Event Client
Next, fleet selection is crucial. Britannia offers a range of yachts for Team Building Sailing Days, from our matched fleet of 16 Oceanis 37s, perfect for intercompany regattas, to high-performance Beneteau First 40s and luxurious Dufour 430 and Dufour 460, the perfect yachts for hosting stakeholders on a Corporate Hospitality event. Yacht availability and readiness are coordinated well in advance.
Participant logistics are equally important, including briefing teams, assigning experienced skippers, and ensuring safety standards are met. Additionally, you can enhance your experience with team branding, catering, and onshore accommodation, turning a sailing event into a complete corporate getaway.

Sponsorships and partnerships also play a pivotal role, providing visibility and potential financial support, while the race-day management itself involves careful attention to weather forecasts, course setup, and race rules enforcement. Ultimately, it’s the seamless combination of these elements that creates a memorable and successful regatta, like those expertly handled by us here at Britannia Events.
“I attended a corporate day sailing with 13 other boats. The whole day was well organised and managed throughout. Our Skipper was excellent and just as keen to win as we novices were! He explained our roles on the boat and showed us what to do and then politely reminded us what to do when we forgot or got things muddled! all in all a great day out on the water and i would highly recommend the team at Britannia to anyone.” – Graeme Whitty, Britannia Corporate Event Client
From conception to the award ceremony, regatta organisation requires detailed planning, a skilled crew, and a passion for sailing to deliver an event that’s both competitive and unforgettable.
