Festina Lente is a Sigma 38 Offshore One Design belonging to the Meakins Family and sailed by them out of Hamble, UK. We have now achieved our main racing goal of the season in that we have succesfully defended our national championship title for the 4th year running. This years cruise took in the Scillies , Yeu , Belle Isles , the Morbihan , the Glenans and finally Batz - about a hunxdred islands in all . Photos and story will appear shortly Festina is also available for skippered charter: see the Chartering section for details of this.

Feel free to explore the site: Past and present race reports are under the Racing tab. Other projects can be found under Links. Logs of Festina's cruises are under the Cruising tab, and, last but not least, Festina Lente's infamous Crewing For Dummies section tells you how we (try!) and do it. A new addition is the forum, where you can discuss life, the universe and everything...
