True Blue Bay Resort Grenada At Digicel Workboat Regatta 2011



The excitement and thrill of workboat racing has been very much embedded into our culture. It’s a tradition for sailing villages such Gouyave, Worburn, Carriacou and Petite Martinique which have been competing for years. It’s one of the few times in Grenada where the generation gap is mended as the art of workboat building and racing is passed on.

At this regatta, we surely experienced the excitement as many of the races were very competitive. You could not have predicted who would win the race. This had the onlookers very anxious and nervous.

It was a fun time. They had a tug-of-war competition of adults and kids hosted by Body and Soul Gym. Also, there was live music with the Digicel Steel Pan Orchestra and the Roots Band.

Workboat racing promises to get bigger every year as it has become a part of the Grenadian Culture. We can't wait for next regatta and we hope you will attend to experience the excitement. We guarantee you will enjoy!!!
