Although racing is still a six-month wait away, The Superyacht Cup already has a solid list of superyachts keen to take part in this year’s on-the-water action.
Regatta regulars, like the 26m carbon-rigged racer Tulip will be competing for the 3rd time, while 24m Heartbeat, will be making her 4th successive appearance.
New boats on the block include the new and improved Vitters-built 46m Unfurled.
This performance sloop penned up by Frers, responsible for some of the fastest boats on the circuit, will be itching to lock horns and show what she’s made of.
This, the 20th edition of the event, which runs from the 22nd to the 25th of June, will, once again, see an incredibly varied fleet.
For performance based boats there will be plenty of competition to keep even the speediest racers on their toes.
The regatta features a lively social programme which, as usual, will feature parties, happy hours, cold beers and toe-tapping tunes, and the organisers have some extra surprises in store, like a stand-up paddle board competition enabling crew to continue their combat back in port.
