Cowes Week Yachting Regatta
Cowes Week is one of the largest yachting regattas in the world. Around 1000 yachts make their way to the Solent where they compete for the many prestigious prizes that are up for grabs. The regatta runs for eight days, with usually one race per day lasting around 4 to 6 hours. There are some fantastic après sail opportunities and the famous Cowes Week Fireworks on the last Friday. (Subject to Covid restrictions).
At Ventus Sailing, we are offering whole boat charters throughout the regatta. Whether you want to spend the entire week out on the water or can only spare a day or two, get in touch to discuss more options.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
