Welcome to EFG Sailing!
EFG is the private bank for sailing. We are proud to sponsor two leading sailing teams in Europe (EFG Bank Sailing Team) and Asia (EFG Bank Mandrake). We sponsor a wide range of leading events worldwide: BACARDI Sailing Weeks, Miami and Newport; the EFG Bank Viper Pan-American Championships; The Star Winter Series, Florida; The Antigua Classic Yacht Regatta; and, most recently, EFG Bank Sailing Arabia – The Tour 2013. We also help to support the development of the next generation of sailors, helping the Monaco Yacht Club to create a Sailing Academy.

With the words “you should have been here last week” clearing ringing in our ears from the previous nights greetings at the Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club, we motored out of the typhoon shelter at Kellett Island to start the 480 nautical mile bi annual Hong Kong to San Fernando race on a breathless Victoria Harbour.
After several years of not racing to Sanya for one reason or another, there was much anticipation onboard EFG Bank Mandrake that we would have a race where conditions would suit the boats who would be able to pole back and aim straight at the mark, unlike the other great race out of Hong Kong to Vietnam where boats are generally pressed for the first day or so with wind angles around the 130 mark.
The Mandrake team was essential the same as that two years ago, but this time with a chartered Kerr 39 yacht.
