THE SPIRIT OF ADVENTURE
McIntyre Adventure is the brand to have fun adventuring and to support adventure, especially in the young.
It is a doorway for young people to grow through adventure - if not through participation, through inspiration.
Achieve
The Golden Globe Race and Ocean Globe Race were born from the desire to recreate the Golden Age of solo and fully crewed around the world racing. The Mini Globe Race is pure adventure. All are unique in the sailing industry, focusing on human values and real challenges to create inspiring stories.
