St. Barths Bucket 2023

25 sailing superyachts took to the regatta racecourses set out by the St Barths Bucket last week, and Pantaenius managing director Martin Baum was there to witness this incredible three-day spectacle.

With his camera pointed in the direction of the action, Martin was able to capture the highs and lows of the fierce competition. 

The winds below, sails were stretched, and crew showed their dedication and commitment to the cause. 

The varied racing fleet was divided into five classes, and comprised some of the sailing world’s most iconic vessels. After three days of intense racing, it was 33.24m Nakupenda who was the overall victor.  Other accolades went to the Dubois-designed Prana for the best start times, and the Dubois-designed Red Dragon, which was helmed by her owner. 

On shore events included the owners’ reception, Bucket bash, and celebratory prize giving.
