Yacht Rallies and Races to Vanuatu

Several yacht rallies are headed to Vanuatu in 2023.  Joining other yachts for your blue water passage increases safety on blue water passages and offers a chance to meet like minded people who might become life-long friends and make your cruise just that much more fun.

Rally organisers also help with the often complicated process of yacht clearance in and out of the countries as well as planning special events and activities with people like us at Yachting World who really look forward to making your welcome as much fun as possible.

Grand Large Yachting World Odyssey 500

The GLY World Odyssey fleet arrived in May with 18 yachts. The rally coordinator Luc Callebaut said, "Yachting World Team was  very helpful and friendly. The yachts of the GLYWO500 were well taken off and I look forward to be back with our next GLYWO500 rally next year."
