Welcome to the X-Yachts Benelux Cup 2010

Following feedback from our owners and participants at previous Belgium Cups and the Gold Cup in Holland, we have decided to make a joint venue for 2010. The Race area will be on the Oosterschelde, near Wemeldinge, Holland.

We look forward to extending a warm welcome to our owners, their crew and families at the host venue for the 2010 Benelux Cup.
This event promises some great sailing days, along with shore side entertainment and catering.
