Posts: 932 Solomon's Island, MD | Sailing in the Philippines sounds like a blast but I'm with Dave on this. If not Worlds or St. Barts then it'd be Round Texel or the Archipelago Raid. My rough budget puts an overseas 7 day race at $14K including a new set of sails for the boat, weather you charter or ship your boat it all comes out the same.

Posts: 60 Kaneohe Bay | Rich, you are asking bloggers to sail. try asking sailors to sail. he, he! Start by getting a smaller regatta off the ground and as they say. if you build it they will come! Get some outsiders to charter and run a fun regatta and more will show and maybe ship their own boat.
