The dazzling sailing and power superyacht event will take place off shore from host Hotel – The Surin Hotel in Pansea Bay. The 11th Asia Superyacht Rendezvous will focus on Thailand’s culture, delicious cuisine, and historical customs and of course the entertainment on and off the water.
On the 17th the first sailing event will start just off shore from The Surin Beach in front of The Surin Hotel. It will be a wonderful sight to see these beautiful superyachts cruising on the crystal clear waters of the Andaman Sea.

On the evening of the 17th we will once again take on the Feadship Challenge, named after the Principal Sponsor Feadship Royal Dutch Shipyards. The challenge is held during an opulent cocktail party at The Surin Hotel pool area. It’s great fun as teams battle one another for “bragging rights”. Each team builds a model sailboat; one team member races up and down a trough of water, with only breath to power the boat.
The second sailing event is on the 18th of December also off shore from The Surin Beach. There will also be a motor and sailing yacht parade for a helicopter photo shoot.
On the afternoon we start the news Rendezvous event – a fun filled Treasure Hunt that will take place both on land and on the water… This fun game will be suitable for both kids and adults – Be prepared!
