Not only does the STI organise the Tall Ships Races every year, they also organise the Tall Ships Regatta's. The Regatta is a race, also for Tall Ships, but the Regatta's are not as big and mostly not during holidays.The Tall Ships Regatta's have taken the Tall Ships to many different places, for example in 2008 they races from England to Madeira. In 2010 there where several regatta's on the Mediterranean Sea, Black Sea and North Sea and in 2011 they Regatta was organised on the Baltic Sea between Lithouania, Finland and Poland.
In 2012 there will be no Tall Ships Regatta's.

The gloomy mood of our first mile on the way to `The Battle of DrakeŽ is suddenly interrupted when Klaas yells out `Whale off the starboard bow!”
All the crew reacts promptly and even de masts bend over to starboard to see what’s going on. The goodbye-to-Antarctica sadness prompts everybody to feast their eyes on this last antarctic treat.
Somebody somewhere must have thrown a small fortune in the whale-machine. We get to see four whales playing together in a quarter of a mile circle around Europa. Every lack of a diving whale tail in any camera is made good.
The four are toying with us: disappearing and surface right next to our ship, swim under the ship from port to starboard, wave a white fin at us, demonstrate skills in backstroke… Antarctica does not let us go yet.
A ship full of people applauds the whale-show and is two bits less sad for the moment.
