Dear BENETEAU Owner and Friends:
South Coast Yachts and BENETEAU America cordially invite you to attend the 2021 BENETEAU Rendezvous! This year’s event is scheduled for August 6th-8th in Two Harbors, Catalina Island. Keep in mind many sailors head over on Thursday the 5th to extend their time on the island and claim moorings. Moorings are first come/first serve and not guaranteed, but if you are registered, they are expecting you. Please join dozens of other BENETEAU owners and friends for this fun and festive weekend.
Sorry, the Beneteau Rendezvous is now full and we are no longer accepting any additional boats.
Admission includes t-shirts, breakfast buffet, regatta entry, professional photos and drone footage taken by Eddie Frank, light dinner appetizers, and open bar all on Saturday the 7th.
