Atlantic Rally for Cruisers · 20 years of partnership

You sail the Atlantic.
We ship you home.

For twenty years we've shipped ARC yachts home from the Caribbean. Sail the crossing — we'll plan the return, the route and the paperwork.

Celebrating 20 years of supporting the ARC

Peters & May is proud to have been part of the Atlantic Rally for Cruisers for the past 20 years.

The ARC marked its 40th anniversary in 2025. Over two decades alongside it, we've shipped cruisers' yachts safely home from the Caribbean to Europe, and on to cruising grounds around the world.
