After mulling over and debating hundreds of entries, SAIL, in partnership with The Moorings and Sunsail, is pleased to announce the winners of its Great Escape contest. Each entrant wrote a 400-word essay describing their ideal BVI charter vacation in the hopes of winning a Sunsail flotilla or a Moorings charter trip. Thanks to everyone who participated! Here is a sample from our two winning entries:
“I once saw a quote from W. E. Warrington that went like this: ‘Every cruise should have a plan…a cruise without a plan too often generates into an aimless loafing party.’ A well planned loafing party, on the other hand, sounds absolutely delightful and truly captures my vision of the ideal BVI charter vacation.”
-Joseph Waltenbaugh of New Castle, PA, will be enjoying a free Moorings charter
“First day: We’ll sail east from Tortola to Fallen Jerusalem, a gorgeous and rocky national park, for hiking, snorkeling and lunch, then motor to Virgin Gorda’s southern tip for The Baths, an other-worldly myriad of boulders and pools. We’ll explore as the afternoon crowds vanish and then moor in Spanish Town’s harbor. A taxi takes us to Anything Goes for great local food off the tourist track. (The day’s toughest question: Beer or rum? Answer: Rum!)” – Norma Robinson of University Park, MD, will be enjoying a Sunsail flotilla
Congratulations to our winners. Stay tuned for details on their trips and for more great offers in the future.
