The Regatta
House (Cas di Regatta), the home base of the “little”
sailors, is located on the boulevard in the center of Kralendijk.
The BSSA was established 10 years ago and then named the Bonaire
Sunfish Sailing Ass. with mainly Sunfish sailors and sailing
fishing boats. At present this has been expanded to include
the youth club Optimist sailors (8-12 years), followed by the
Sunfish sailors, for the ages of 12 and older up to adults of
all ages. The Cas di Regatta is a safe home port for Cat and
Lasers sailors as well. Therefore, the BSSA has been aptly renamed
the Bonaire Sailing School Association at its 10Th anniversary.
The BSSA is a non-profit association with more than 35 members.
All activities are being organized by volunteers.
An extensive
teaching program offers you the opportunity on Bonaire to
put sailing on this world class sea into practice.
Lots of
activities are being organized, such as internal races, camp-outs
and special events, for example the Year End Race, where Optimist,
Sunfishes, Lasers and Cats compete with even local fishing boats
and the so-called micro boats (model boats)!
Cas di Regatta
is also the center for the Bonaire Regatta which is held each
October (www.bonaireregatta.com).
Whether
you are on Bonaire for a holiday or residing here for a longer
period; you can always take lessons, rent a sailing boat or
participate in one of BSSA’s activities.
We welcome you warmly!
