Nobody wants to miss out on this regatta. 241 miles that have made the cliff side of the Giraglia, in northern Corsica, famous and legendary. Nicolò Reggio, President of the Yacht Club Italiano, (Italian Yacht Club, YCI) in Genoa, explains the value and secret behind this event. 04’05” 243 people set off at the starting line in the gulf of Saint-Tropez for the 67th edition of the long-distance Giraglia race – the heart and closing competition of a week of sailing, that began on 7 June with the Sanremo- Saint-Tropez regatta and was followed by three days of coastal trials. The regatta, organised by the Italian Yacht Club in collaboration with the Sanremo Yacht Club, Société Nautique de Saint-Tropez (the Saint- Tropez Nautical Society), the Yacht Club de France and, for 2019, the Yacht Club de Monaco, is today a “must-do” event. Proof of this can be seen in Armando Grandi, the 92-year-old shipowner of the Gibian who came to Giraglia after competing all over the world: “I missed it before and I definitely didn’t want to miss it this time.” This year the northwest wind of 30 knots and the rough sea helped the Maxi size boats. Surfing up to a speed of 24 knots, Rambler 88 took the line honours, manned by the best in New Zealand sailing. It was a wild ride, but hopes of a record were crushed by a decisive drop in the wind around 10 miles from the finishing line. “No record? A good reason to try the event again” said George David, the owner. And while the line honours went to Rambler, the overall victory was taken by another Maxi boat, Caol Ila R: in fact, this year the large yachts walked off with all the honours. 06’07” NIcOlò Reggio President of YCI Genoa For the Italian Yacht club (YcI), were met with wind or calm seas, the big boats met the small ones: a the oldest yacht club in the because of the beauty of the boats, fabulous sight for those spectating Mediterranean, what does the big or small.

  • Rolex Giraglia 2018 Line Honour
    Subscribe Past Issues Translate RSS La Rolex Giraglia a ritmo di Tango È il Wally 100 Tango, che alle 13.19 di questo pomeriggio ha conquistato la line honour della 66ma edizione della Rolex Giraglia con un tempo reale di 23h48m55s. Grazie al talento tattico di un equipaggio a trazione francese, con i campioni transalpini Marc Pajot e Thierry Peponnet che si sono alternati al timone dell'ultimo nato del cantiere Wally. Classifiche in tempo compensato ancora difficili da stimare, con la flotta ancora molto allungata lungo la rotta tra la Corsica e Genova ‘Secondo me è una regata che durerà circa 24 ore’ – così parlò Thierry Peponnet, il campione francese alla tattica del Wally 100 Tango, profetizzando così un tempo che ha mancato di 12 minuti scarsi. Non aveva certamente atteso di vincerla, però, con un tempo totale di 23h48m55s e dopo una regata piuttosto impegnativa. ‘Non sono un grande amante delle regate offshore – gli fa eco Marc Pajot, veterano della Coppa America e timoniere del velocissimo progetto di Mark Mills – ma la Giraglia è una regata sempre speciale. Ne ho fatte diverse, ma è la prima volta che la vinco’. Dietro Tango, un arrivo in volata per Galateia davanti a Magic Carpet. I 3 Wally 100 hanno condotto una regata che, a tratti, ha ricordato il triello finale del film ‘Il buono il brutto e il cattivo’ di Sergio Leone. Si sono sempre marcati a vista con le miglia finali in cui il vento, in fase calante, ha rimescolato le carte consentendo la volata finale a Tango. Insomma, le prime 3 posizioni in tempo reale, sono stato un affare privato tra i 3 Wally 100, con gli arrivi dei primi 3 nell'arco di un'ora.

  • Boccadasse Testo
    When you leave the turmoil of the city and come to Boccadasse, you are under “ the impression of returning to the cradle or falling into your mother‘s arms. The anxiety of life seems to melt a little, and you feel that the ancient peace and harmony are still here, in the intimacy of its beautiful sea. “ GENOA The Municipality of Genoa, the largest one in Liguria, extends on an area of approximately 244 square kilometres and consists of a thin coastal strip over 42 km long, overlooking the Ligurian Sea and surrounded by hills and moun- tains. Genoa, the principal town of Liguria, is a modern cosmopolitan metropolis, now undergoing a process of important economic, social and urban transformations. Genoa, along with Venice, Pisa and Amalfi, was one of the maritime republics that dominated the Mediterranean and European scene during the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance. At that time Genoa was also known as “Superba” and " Dominante dei Mari", thanks to the position of dominance that reached at international level, especially in the economic and commercial fields. Today the city is looking for a new identity, between the glory of a distant past, linked to the navy and to the trade, and the tremen- dous challenges of the third millennium, in the role of the third largest Italian industrial area, for what concerns the fields of marine craft, clothing, technology and scientific research, as well as being a major tourist and cultural cen- tre. In the town center you can see some of the most beautiful palaces in Europe, inscribed in the Unesco World Heritage Sites.

  • Genoa and the Cinque Terre
    AETAS VIAGGI – TEL. + 39 06 71 58 40 64 – [email protected] – www.aetasviaggi.com GENOA AND THE CINQUE TERRE The Cinque Terre is a rugged portion of coast on the Italian Riviera. It is in the Liguria region of Italy, to the west of the city of La Spezia, and comprises five villages: Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore. The coastline, the five villages, and the surrounding hillsides are all part of the Cinque Terre National Park and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Over the centuries, people have carefully built terraces on the rugged, steep landscape right up to the cliffs that overlook the sea. Part of its charm is the lack of visible corporate development. Paths, trains and boats connect the villages, and cars cannot reach them from the outside. The Cinque Terre area is a very popular tourist destination. Day 1: Arrival in Genoa. Guided tour of the historical center: the Romanesque-Gothic Church of S. Lorenzo, with its beautiful interior frescoes and the famous chapel of the Baptist, Piazza De Ferrari with the Opera House and the Academy of Fine Arts, the Church of Jesus, a fine example of Baroque, including works by Rubens and Guido Reni, the Ducal Palace, seat of the city government, now used as a major art exhibitions. A short climb leads to the Medieval Gates and the House of Columbus. A few steps away we find the noble Piazza S. Matteo with palaces now included in the lists of the UNESCO heritage of humanity. Continue to Piazza Campetto and Via degli Orefici, full of old shops and bakeries, to reach Piazza Banchi, dominated by the characteristic Church of S.
