The St Barths Bucket Regatta 2014 kicks off next week … our fearless leader Steve Branagh and project manager Mark Timmons are headed across the pond to race against each other on two of RSB’s Royal Huisman clients SY Unfurled with Captain Adam Bateman, and SY Kaimaxitha with Captain Adam Williams … so here’s how its stacked…

Steve is on board Unfurled: 34 m (112 ft) luxury yacht was produced at Royal Huisman in 2000. Coming from behind into the final race last year in Gazelles class, and ending up lifting the trophy ahead of P2 for winning the final race, and the overall series, will their success be matched this year... or will Kaimaxitha pip them at the post with Mark Timmons: 2012, Royal Huisman delivered the remarkably elegant ketch Kamaxitha to her owners. With naval architecture designed by Dykstra & Partners Naval Architects and warm classic interiors from the drawing boards of Rhoades Young Design, this exquisite sailing yacht continues the Spirit of Tradition...she's built for speed so it will be very interesting to see her regatta progress!

Place your bets!? Will it be Steve that takes the bucket... or will Project Manager Mark win the race?
