Forty-seven maxi yachts took to the waters off the Costa Smeralda today, for opening encounters at the 2010 Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup. It was a good day for most with more breeze than expected, affording all classes some quality racing. For some, of course, it was a really good day. Notables include Alegre (GBR) in the Mini Maxi Rolex World Championship with two wins out of two: a perfect opening salvo. Hamilton II (GBR) took Supermaxi, Ranger (CAY) won the anticipated battle of the J-Class and J-One (GBR) put one over her bigger rivals in Wally. All winners will be satisfied with a job well done, but will be keenly aware there is plenty more work to be done.

MAXI YACHT ROLEX CUP SETS UP TO LEAVE LASTING IMPRESSION
|
Sum up the 2010 Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup in one word and ‘big’ is probably the shortest, but most emphatic. ‘Impressive’ might be better if one is trying to convey a little more of the visual impact. ‘Astounding’, when you learn that the majority of the twenty-four yachts competing in the Mini Maxi Rolex World Championship have been lifted and weighed as part of the measurement process.

2010 470 Open European Championships - Final Results
|
Turkish Delight for Greeks and French in Tense 470 Finale
With the great mosques of Istanbul providing the most dramatic of backdrops, the outcome of the 2010 Open 470 European Championships remained in the balance until the final leg of the men’s Medal Race.
Just five points separated the top six men’s 470 teams going into the Medal Race, and it was going to take an outstanding performance to secure gold. The Greeks were greeted with their favourite conditions - strong and gusty winds - and Panagiotis Mantis and Pavlos Kagialis took up the early running just ahead of Israel, represented by Gideon Kliger and Eran Sela.

2010 470 Open European Championships - Day 6
|
Tension Mounts as 470 Men Prepare for a ‘Scratch’ Medal Race
With just the Medal Race remaining, the outcome of the 2010 Open 470 European Championships is far from clear. Two races in the gusty and shifty waters of Istanbul reshuffled the order of the men’s fleet, and now just 5 points separate the top six teams.
