It was smooth sailing for the Campari Lady Nathalie on Sunday, as it booked its 17th victory in the Catch Me If You Can series, holding off five 'A' Class sloops in the waters of Montagu Bay. The 'B' Class sloop Lady Nathalie was given a 12-minute head start on a 10-mile course, and with a late surge, it was able to hold off the Redstripe, the Running Tide, the Southern Cross, Good News and Ed Sky. The Lady Nathalie now leads the all-time series, 17-13. On the Saturday of the regatta, 'C' Class and optimist races were held. Event organizer and owner of the Campari Lady Nathalie Eleazor "Barber J" Johnson, said that he is thankful for the support that he continues to get from year to year for the regatta. The St. Valentine's Day Massacre Regatta is held every year in February. Sponsors for the regatta included the government of The Bahamas through the Ministry of Agriculture and Marine Resources with responsibility for regattas, Butler and Sands, Burns House, Bristol Wines and Spirits, Caribbean Bottling Co., Sands Beer, Lowe's Wholesale, Asa H. Pritchard Ltd., BTC and Sir Durward Knowles, just to name a few.
