Everyone is invited! STIR 2025 invites CSA (Caribbean Sailing Association-handicap rule), racing, cruising, and bareboat classes; ORC; Large Multihulls; Hobie Waves; and One-Design classes with a minimum length of 19 feet.
Excitement and participation are continuing to build for our 51st STIR, which will simultaneously host the first leg of the 2025 VX One Caribbean Cup and the IC24 Caribbean Championships. The best global sailors, including Olympians, America’s Cup and One-Design World Champions, and the Caribbean’s top weekend warriors, can enjoy keen competition on courses set by our top-notch professional race committee.

Regatta organizers and host, the St. Thomas Yacht Club, are pleased to announce that the flagship committee vessel for STIR and RTR 2025 will be the Moorings 464PC, a staple 4-cabin power catamaran in The Moorings charter fleet and winner of ‘Best for Travel’ in the Best of Boats Awards. This power catamaran is among the latest in a long line of power catamarans developed by The Moorings, specifically with charter vacations in mind, and it is an ideal platform to manage a regatta. The elevated flybridge, unique to power catamarans, and complete with wraparound seating, a full helm station, and a wet bar, means the committee has the perfect vantage point and all the creature comforts necessary to deliver a spectacular event.
“The Moorings is proud to support regattas throughout the Caribbean, including the STIR and BVISR. The racers and spectators who travel to the Caribbean to take part in these incredible events are a vital part of what makes the sailing and charter community so special, so anything we can do as a business to help foster this culture and the overall experience is very important to us,” says Ian Pedersen, senior marketing manager for The Moorings & Sunsail, based in Clearwater, Florida.
