Everybody is welcome to join the Greek Sails Round the Island of Poros race weekend; Greek Sails customers, workers and sailors from around the area. So if you have your own yacht in the area or you fancy an end-of-season yacht charter with a difference, this is an excellent opportunity to have some fun and pit your sailing abilities against others without any of it being taken too seriously.

The weekend is organised into two days of sail racing, one around the ‘cans’ in Poros bay on the Saturday followed on the Sunday with a race anti-clockwise around the island of Poros. The Saturday evening is always spent in a local bar with the prize-giving for the first day’s racing and then on the Sunday evening following the actaul ‘Round the Island race’, there is a quayside barbeque with Greek-sized portions of food and drink and a second prize-giving for the Sunday’s race winner plus the overall weekend winner.

Round Poros race 2015

As in 2014, the number of late season charter bookings meant it was not possible to run the ‘round the cans’ Thomas Cup race on the Sat of ‘race weekend’ and so only the The Greek Sails Round Poros Cup race was possible. This was held on Sun 01-Nov-2015. The results were:

The Greek Sails Round Poros Cup 2013

The actual race around the island of Poros, the Greek Sails Round Poros Cup, took place the following day on Sun 27-Oct-2014, however, much like another well-known Round the Island race in 2014, the race was hampered by very light winds.

In the end the wind completely vanished and with a barbeque awaiting, the race was abandoned in favour of ‘après sail’ on the quayside. Sadly this is the second year that the wind has disrupted the Round the Island race, only in 2012 it was too much wind. Let’s hope 2014 will be the usual success of previous years.


Round Poros race 2012

The Round Poros race 2012 was held over the weekend Sat/Sun 27 & 28-Oct-2012. The results were:

The Thomas Cup 2012

The ‘round the cans’ Thomas Cup race was held in Askeli bay on the south east corner of the island on Sat 27-Oct-2012. The course length was 5.18nm.

The Greek Sails Round Poros Cup 2012

The actual race around the island of Poros, the Greek Sails Round Poros Cup, was scheduled to take place the following day on Sun 28-Oct-2012, however, the race was abandoned due to a strong onshore wind making it unnecessarily difficult to get boats away from the quayside. Consequently the second day focussed more on ‘après sail’!


Round Poros race 2011

The Round Poros race 2011 was held over the weekend Sat/Sun 29 & 30-Oct-2011. The results were:

The Gadi Katz Cup 2011

The Greek Sails Round Poros Cup 2010

Due to very light winds, no yachts completed the circuit around the island of Poros, running out of time with a 5 hour race time limit. Consequently all yachts did not finish (‘DNF’).

The actual race around the island of Poros, the Greek Sails Round Poros Cup, took place the following day on Sun 1-Nov-2009. Quite unlike the previous day and uncharacteristically for the time of year, the race was run under dark skies and a cold northerly F8, causing a significant number of boats to withdraw from the race.
