The BVIs Interline Regatta is a competitive race for several sailors but most people tag along on so-called party cats, rented catamarans. It is one of several events throughout the year that are primarily for those in the airline industry (thus, a lot of pilots and flight attendants are present) as well as friend of those in the industry. Anyone, tho, can “tag along” as long as they have a boat and partake in the themed beach parties.
Several companies rent sailboats in the BVIs; the Moorings is the host rental yacht company and event sponsor.
