The St.Barths Bucket Regatta has no sponsor and is funded through discrete financial contributions by industry luminaries as well as leading designers and builders who all keep a low profile. This allows the exceptional regatta to keep the emphasis on the passion of sailing as this regatta is primarily for the yacht owners to truly enjoy the yachts they have invested so much time and effort in.

Perini Navi backed a sprawling roster of 9 boats, including the spectacular Maltese Falcon, new Briand sloop P2 and the new Baracuda whose purple sails were an eye-catching delight. Royal Huisman backed the impressive schooner Meteor as a celebration of their 125 years in the industry.

The starting line for the race is staggered in one minute intervals, with the slowest vessels leaving first to embark on the three day regatta. The finishing order of day one determines the starting order of day two, leaving day three with a collection of superyachts racing closely towards a mass finish.

The fleet of superyachts was divided into two categories: Les Gazelles and Les Grand Dames, or Racing and Cruising divisions.
