Discover the delights of sailing the Baltic in summer!

Join us for a morning of bluewater sailing insights and knowledge sharing. Start with coffee and pastries while connecting with fellow sailors, our panellists, and the World Cruising Club team.

The presentation will cover the 2026 ARC Baltic Rally, including the route, destinations, expected weather, and practicalities of joining in Kiel and cruising afterwards. Our experienced skipper panel will share personal insights and stories, and there will be plenty of time to ask questions.

No ticket is required, as the event takes place outside the Southampton Boat Show.
