RAVENGER CLAIMS OVERALL WIN AT THE SUPERYACHT CUP PALMA
Premier Superyacht Sailing in Palma with a Full North-Powered Fleet
Superyacht Cup Palma’s 25th Anniversary Regatta has concluded in dramatic fashion with a first-time entrant, 43m Ravenger taking home their class and the overall regatta win. North expert and Palma local Quinny Houry was onboard trimming Ravenger’s newly installed North 3Di inventory.
Finishing behind Ravenger in Class B was Ganesha in second, Baiurdo VI in third, Scorpione of London took fourth and Aquarius rounded out the fleet in 5th.
Nilaya won Class A. Crew member Bouwe Bekking stated, “the competition has been really good, and everyone sailed well. Missy is extremely fast upwind, a real weapon, and Shamanna also – we had some excellent racing.” Missy took home second, Shamanna in third and Umiko in fourth.
35m Frers designed Nautor’s Swan Shamanna won the special North Sails ‘Spirit of the Event’ award at the prize-giving in memory of North Sails founder Lowell North. Baiurdo VI was also a special prize winner, having the best race start in the event.
