Do you dream of a breathtaking sailing adventure on a historic ship? Then you’ve come to the right place! We cordially invite you to participate in the Rum Regatta 2025 with the Belle Amie. And that means: 4 days of sailing, three regattas, four harbour parties and more than a hundred old sailing ships around us.

Day 1: The herring regatta from Kappeln to Sønderborg (29 May 2025)
Op Hemelvaartsdag zeilen we van Kappeln naar Sønderborg. Ervaar de verfrissende bries van de Oostzee en geniet van het zeilen op een historische Logger tijdens de unieke Haringregatta.

In Sønderborg, the Gaffelmarkt will take place around the castle. Together, we will conjure up a delicious dinner on board in the evening. It’s time to enjoy the atmosphere of this port town on deck. In the harbour, we spend cosy time with other sailing ships, eat a delicious soft ice cream, make music together, chat, take a dip in the nearby sea or take a stroll through Sønderborg or the nearby castle park.

Day 2: Flensburg Fjord Regatta from Sønderborg to Flensburg (30 May 2025)
The next day we will take part in the Flensburg Fjord Regatta. Sail together with many small and large gaff sailors through the picturesque Flensburg Fjord and compete against other passionate sailors. A unique experience!

Day 3: The Rum Regatta on the Flensburg Fjord (31 May 2025)
The highlight of this trip is the legendary Rum Regatta on the Flensburg Fjord. The special thing about this regatta is that not the first, but the second ship wins the coveted 3-litre bottle of rum. Who will make it this year? The market and the city of Flensburg invite for rum, music and fun in the evening

This sailing trip will take place aboard the historic Belle Amie, a ship with a rich tradition. Everyone is welcome to take part in this exciting race, no sailing experience is required. Together, we set sail, manoeuvre and bring the old lady on course. Along the way, we will be in the best company of many other gaff sailors in the Flensburg Fjord.

Day 4: RumZeilen (1 June 2025)
With the day trip ‘Rum Sailing’ on Sunday, we will appropriately conclude this long regatta weekend. There might be tea with rum in the morning, socialising and, of course, sailing on Sunday after the Rum Regatta.

It is also possible to book the individual regattas as day trips without overnight stays. Ask us about the possibilities.

Depending on the booking schedule, it is also possible to include a pre-night stay on the ship on request. Ask us about the possibilities!

Frequently asked questions

We still handle your bookings personally and therefore do not have an automatic booking system. This way, we can enable you to reserve individual places for a few days without any obligation. This allows you, for example, to arrange your holiday without someone stealing your place from under your nose. For this reason, we cannot keep track of the exact number of free places on a daily basis. However, we regularly check the availability of our sailing holidays. Therefore, you can generally assume that plenty of free places are still available on all trips that are not marked as ‘fully booked’ or ‘Last Minute’. Call us or use our booking form if you want to know the exact number of places available.

If you are travelling alone and have not booked a private cabin, you will be accommodated in a shared cabin. Shared cabins are normally divided by gender. Only on the Belle Amie and Seatrips Yachts do they sometimes have mixed cabins.

Yes, vegetarians and allergies/intolerances can be catered for on most ships. However, there is only one menu per day on the programme. Therefore, please let us know during your booking if you have any special dietary requirements.

In principle, all our trips are suitable for both experienced and novice sailors. The professional crew on board will teach you everything you need to know. In some cases (e.g. on Atlantic crossings) initial sailing experience may be an advantage/requirement. In this case, this will be clearly indicated in the cruise description.
