2016 52 SUPER SERIES: Porto Cervo Preview:
The best monohull racing circuit in the world continues this week with the second 52SuperSeries regatta of the season--Audi Settimana Delle Bocche - 28th June–2nd July. Official Practice Race on Monday, June 27th.
Audi Settimana delle Bocche › 52 SUPER SERIES - Pure Performance: Venue: Yacht Club Costa Smeralda - The Yacht Club Costa Smeralda has been synonymous with racing at the highest international level for decades and has been host to many world championship regattas as well as the Maxi Worlds. It is home to the Azzurra campaigns such as “challenged for the America’s Cup” and now runs the TP52 Audi Azzurra Sailing Team. The Costa Smeralda takes its names from the colour of the vivid turquoise waters but as well as the stunning backdrop of the north east of Sardinia, the winds are reliable and from a choice of different directions. The mistral winds from the north, levant winds from the east and scirocco winds from the dry lands of Africa all provide variety and excitement. The Yacht Club Costa Smeralda are well known for the Sardinia Cup international team event and in 2011 were hosts to the TP52 World Championships."
