Matched Racing
Are you looking for a corporate day with a twist?
Something special to really create a long-lasting impression?
Is your group quite competitive?
If this sounds like what you are looking for, a matched-boat
racing day with Sailing Logic provides an exciting activity day in
the Solent. Great fun and with a brilliant racing twist, your
employees or clients will be talking about this for months to
come!
Matched racing involves using 2 or more identical boats - as the
boats are the same, the difference in racing performance is down to
the crews, so no unfair advantages can be claimed!
Your teams spend the morning learning how to sail the yacht as a
crew. We provide onbaord deli-style lunches to maximise time on the
water, then the afternoon is spent racing against each other in 2
or 3 short races! We recommed the Reflex 38, Beneteau 40.7 or new
First 40, of which we can provide a fleet of upto 12 boats!
Two boats racing against each other over a short course
is fun, entertaining and exhilarating. The added
element of competition provides a great twist and
the banter will continue well after the day has finished, providing
a memorable day for staff or clients.

5 ways a Sailing Day can boost team
performance
Team sailing days are more than just great fun
- they actually improve team and company performance. Sailing,
especially with the added twist of racing, provides the perfect
environment to develop a high-performance team. Here's how...
1. Breaking Down
Barriers. The group team will have to work together
throughout the day, to trust each other and to communicate
regardless of their work-place hierarchy, roles and interactions.
People will form bonds and speak to colleagues they may have never
spoken to before! This opens the flow of communication in the
workplace - leading to a more effective way of working.
2. Employee
Engagement. Everyone gets involved in learning how to
sail and race the yacht. When people feel involved and included,
they are more engaged in the activity, participate more actively,
generate new ideas and make a positive contribution. This feeling
of engagement is transferred back to the workplace.
