New start date for ARC Portugal

2021 ARC Portugal © World Cruising Club

Due to logistical challenges in some of our stopover ports, and concerns for dock space due to the extended Platinum Jubilee Bank Holidays (Thursday 2 and Friday 3 June), World Cruising Club have had to change the rally start date, moving the rally by one week with the start from Mayflower Marina Plymouth now on Sunday 12 June.

The final prizegiving at Marina de Lagos will now be on Wednesday 6 July.

Monte Real Club de Yates Bayona, our regular host club in Spain, will have an extremely limited number of visitor berths available due to an intense programme of international and national dinghy events this summer. Therefore the landfall port in Spain will not be at Bayona, but at one of several alternative marinas on Ria de Pontavedra and Ria de Vigo. A further update will be issued once the new port is confirmed.
