MONACO, March 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The 40th edition of the\u00a0Primo Cup-Troph\u00e9e UBS, the first major international event held under the presidency of HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco, comes to an end at the Yacht Club de Monaco.\u00a0This anniversary edition has attracted 90 teams totalling 400 sailors divided across the J\/70, Smeralda 888, Longtze Premier and Cape 31 classes. It was a very special edition for us. After 40 years were still here welcoming competitors from all over Europe. Monaco is always the place to test new boats and new technology for the sailing and were very proud of it and that this happens under the umbrella of the Monaco Capital of Advanced Yachting, says\u00a0YCM General Secretary Bernard dAlessandri giving also a little insight on whats happening next at the Club.\u00a0I take this opportunity to mention the Yachting Day including the Explorer Awards. Itll be here during the Ocean Week and well have the pleasure to receive many Explorers. Well have 8 boats and around 200 guests, including a delegation of the Explorers Club from New York, around here for this opportunity\u00a0which is great for the people that have passion\u00a0for the sea and also innovation.<\/p>\n

Sticking to Primo Cup, in the J\/70 class the final victory went to Giangiacomo Serena di Lapigio and his monegasque team ‘G-Spot’, followed by Jerry (that also won the amateur\u00a0Corinthian category) and Moonlight II. I am very happy. I always say we got very lucky but behind our luck theres a lot of work weve been doing the whole winter. Primo Cup is one of the most important regattas organised by this Club so Im very proud of our result. We won in 2021 and now we won again so were looking forward to the next one, says di Lapigio.\u00a0On the Perpetual Trophy, made by Buccellati, every year it is inscribed the name of the winner of the most represented class, which is J\/70, to immortalise the sailing performance. Among the 32 names already engraved (representing eight nations) are Monegasques Claude Rodelato, Ludovico Fassitelli and Giangiacomo Serena di Lapigio, whos having his name written on it again this year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Moving on to the Smeralda 888 class,\u00a0YCMs Achille Onorato Canard \u00e0 lOrange\u00a0<\/em>topped the ranking, followed by Giovanni Lombardi Stronati Django and Paolo Rotelli Black Star. In Longtze Premier, it is the Swiss on\u00a0Shensu<\/em>\u00a0who dominated being in complete control of their boat. In second place came Wetfeet and in third QI. For the debutant Cape 31 first place went to Give me Five. Second and third were gained by Shotgun and Solano II.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Organised with technical clothing supplier Slam and UBS, and the support of Monacos City Hall, over the years the event has established itself as a major one design meeting attracting big names in sailing. Since the eighties, it has also proved a testbed of innovation with Monaco bay becoming a reference for developing novel technologies and experimenting with new concepts at sea.\u00a0<\/p>\n
