Late 2016 and 2017 suggested plans

Heartbeat IV will be back in the water over Christmas and the New Year.  It is intended to do the RORC Caribbean 600 starting on 20th Februaruy 2017.  This will allow preparation for the 1000 mile inaugural Antigua-Bermuda Race starting on May 12th 2017.   This is planned as a feeder race for the America’s Cup in Bermuda. It is intended that Heartbeat IV will be berthed at the Royal Bermuda Yacht Club from her arrival after the Antigua-Bermuda Race until June 30th,  so will be berthed within a couple of hundred metres of the AC Cup centre. The schedule for the America’s Cup in Bermuda starts on about May 26th until about June 27th.   After June 30th, it is planned for her to go to the Azores for the winter.   Anyone interested in any of this,  you know who to contact!

And here’s a picture or two of Heartbeat when she was last in Bermuda.
