A 52-minute Documentary and 26-minute Sports Feature for Canal Plus channels SPORT +, PLANETE THALASSA and LE CANAL EVENEMENT (99) on CANALSAT CARAIBES

Already recognized as an exceptional event in the world of sailing, the Saint Barth Cata Cup has now attracted the attention of major international media.After coverage in the written press—regional, national, and specialized nautical outlets—to spread the word about this West Indian regatta, this year it is Canal+ that will play a larger role. A local partner since the debut of the event, Canal+ Antilles plans to increase its participation by producing two programs that will be broadcast not only on its  “Canal Evènement,” but also on its targeted channels such as Planète Thalassa and Sport+. 

26 minutes of sport !

This fifth edition of the Cata Cup, which once again has a great mix of world-class racing stars and passionate amateurs, will be celebrated with a 26-minute program about the regatta itself for Sport + . The camera will go “backstage” to capture the preparation of the boats, the athletic challenge, inside information about the event, great photos of the races, interviews with champions, and of course fabulous images as the boats sail around the island. 

52 minutes for Saint Barthélemy

 The second program is a documentary that will focus on the spirit of the island, the regatta, and especially its organizers. In addition to highlighting the race and its participants, these 52-minutes will zoom in on the organization of the Cata Cup and those whose hard work makes this event possible. In other words: a look at those passionate souls who play an active role in the social and economic aspects of the island, far from the clichéd image of Saint Barthélemy.
