The four-day Superyacht Cup Palma 2022, which will be held from June 29th onwards, is now just a few days away. This is Europe’s oldest regatta dedicated to superyachts and this year will surprise us already from the first day, with two races in the J-Class category, in which Topaz, Ranger, Velsheda and the newcomer, Svea, will be competing.
The other participants will take the stage over the remaining three days in the luxury ocean cruiser, modern classic and high performance carbon flyers categories.
The 24-metre Wally yacht Rose, formerly known as Tango, will join this year and will be the smallest boat in the race.
“ The new owners of Rose are keen to build on her racing pedigree,” said her skipper Ben Potter –We have a 2022 calendar with emphasis on the biggest and best regattas, and Superyacht Cup Palma will undoubtedly provide one of the highlights of the season. We are all really looking forward to it ”.
