Welcome

Highland Spring HIHO 2012


Great Week of Racing

Exciting Week of Adventure for 2012 Event

Highland Spring HIHO will combine SUP, windsurfing, yacht racing & island adventure. Join us on an odyssey through the beautiful British Virgin Islands where you will visit more than 12-islands, enjoy daily racing and be treated to great food & entertainment, including local bands & DJ's every night. Your home for a week will be a captained catamaran from The Moorings, the World's largest charterboat company.

Compete in either the SUP or windsurfing classes alongside pro & amateur racers from around the World. SUP racers can choose Open or Fanatic One-Design. Windsurfers race on Techno 2 boards. Everyone joins in for the yacht races. Don't worry if you aren't into competition. Highland Spring HIHO is as much fun for non-competing participants who can enjoy great sailing, other watersports activities and discovering new islands and destinations.

Highland Spring HIHO is an all-inclusive week of adventure where one price covers accommodations, lunch & dinner, equipment, racing fees, HIHO apparel and all taxes & fees.

2011's Week of Racing

This year's Highland Spring HIHO event offered great racing in the windsurfing and both SUP classes.

The over 50-racers completed a total of 13 races in 5-days, plus everyone enjoyed a race aboard The Moorings catamaran fleet from Anegada to The Baths, Virgin Gorda. A fun race for the yacht captains was featured on the last afternoon of the event too.



Following 5-inter-island competitions defending champion Wilhelm Schurmann from Brazil had aced the windsurfing class while 16-year old Slater Trout from Maui, Hawaii had won all the open class SUP races. In the YOLO One-Design SUP class Janette Ocampo from Hermosa Beach, California paddled hard to beat out Casey Trout. Michael Daniels from the BVI was third.
