Three yachts, one each from the UK, Singapore and Australia have so far entered the BIYC 2010, which provided a week of racing and fun off the coast of Borneo. This is one of the few races that pay you take part added to which you are pampered with lavish entertainment at the receptions/ prize giving in each port of Call.
The IRC class 3 racers compete for the Borneo Cup and a number of boats are expected from Singapore and The Philippines, to take on the local boats from Miri and Kota Kinabalu.
There is a local handicap system for cruising boats, which even provides for the use of engines if the winds are light and prizes for the first 3 in each division. This years race fits in with the schedule of the Sail Malaysia Passage to the East Rally .
