[trip review (1)](https://info.sailingvirgins.com/blog/topic/trip-review) see all #### ABOUT US The founders of Sailing Virgins started things as a result of having some incredible sailing seasons in the Mediterranean and Caribbean working for sailing company The Yacht Week. James then worked for and for a while managed Tortola Sailing School. In 2016 he branched off and started Sailing Virgins. We LOVE how sailing is changing. Top speeds in the America’s Cup were thirteen knots not so long ago. Now they’re 45 knots. If you’re excited by that, we’re with you. Giddy up! #### CONTACT US - Wickhams Cay 2 Road Town, Tortola VG1110, British Virgin Islands - [+1 (272) 999-1920](tel:+12729991920) - [info@sailingvirgins.com](mailto:info@sailingvirgins.com) © LOVE SAILING VIRGINS 2016-2024 - [Contact Us](https://sailingvirgins.com/contact_us) - [Terms & Conditions](https://sailingvirgins.com/terms-and-conditions) - [Privacy Policy](https://sailingvirgins.com/privacy-policy)
