Giraglia Rolex Cup Regatta

August 22, 2021

The annual Giraglia Rolex Cup regatta is one of the most prestigious events in yachting. It has been held since 1953. in June Yacht Club Italiano. Hundreds of participants from all over the world come here to get a great experience, to work out the strategy and practice of behavior at the helm in various conditions. It is a totally immersive event with unexpected atmospheres, great wrestling sports and an unrivaled level of organization.

More than two hundred ships take part in the competition every year. Quite recently, a kind of record was registered – the number of yachts exceeded three hundred, and the crews were from 18 countries. Sailing vessels of the following classes can participate in the competition:

  • IRC;
  • ORC;
  • racing Mini / Maxi;

  • Choosing a yacht from Sparks Life

Sparks Life invites you to take part in this exciting regatta. For the competition we choose the Beneteau Oceanis 46.1 with the First Line configuration. The carbon mast and low keel will allow this yacht not only to take part in any regatta, but also to take leading prizes in it. In January 2019 she was named European Yacht of the Year at the Flagship Night in Düsseldorf. I must say that this is a kind of “Oscar” in the world of courts.

There are 4 cabins on board. The yacht is equipped with an extended mast and increased sails (our choice is Aramidsport sails, additional Spinnaker A3 and Code 0). Numerous modern, innovative details of the vessel give it additional comfort and increase speed.

Our team will be led by an experienced skipper, RYA / MCA licensed, whose crew has taken the podiums several times. Therefore, we have an excellent chance of winning!
