From now until August 31, 2010, Horizon Yacht Charters is offering its charter guests a chance to win a seven-day charter complete with a sail with Peter Holmberg. By clicking here and filling out a contest form, charterers can win a trip for two on a Horizon boat with Holmberg. The winners will enjoy a day sailing with the 1988 Olympic Silver Medalist, America’s Cup Alinghi helmsman, former World Champion Match Racer and Maxi World Champion.
