Accommodation and Coach Boat Link
The host is Club Nautico San Isidro in coordination with Yacht Club Argentina. The regatta venue is Nautico San Isidro which is an Island separated from the mainland by a 20 foot long bridge.
There is plenty of space for all the boats, containers, even a few sleeping dorms if you contact the host club. There are 16 Tennis Courts, 1 squash court, 5 pools, 2 golf courses, 3 restaurants, and a gym.
Racing will take place at the mouth of the river. In essence, we will go upwind far enough for there to be centerboard clearing depth. Depending on winds and tides, this can be closer or farther from the marina, so trips to and from the racecourse should be anticipated to be from 10 to 20 minutes.
The South American Championship is in the same venue and race areas 10 days before and we encourage all teams to attend.
