Prior to the Commodore’s Cup Regatta, the prestigious Rolex China Sea Race 2012, which is Asia’s top blue-water racing offshore sailing event, will finish at the Subic Bay Yacht Club on April 8. The race is a 565-nautical mile race from Hong Kong to Subic Bay.

But the event is not just about the Yachts, they also have some on-shore activities lined up at  the Subic Bay Freeport, cocktails and the awarding on Saturday, April 14.
