About the event
A team of 10-12 people on a sports yacht will sail after the Giraglia Rolex Cup regatta to the Greek islands under the guidance of a professional skipper.
We are planning to sail during the daytime, but night crossings are also possible. It all depends on the weather conditions. This crossing is for those who want to test themselves and add nautical miles to their logbooks, those who want to learn to manage a sports yacht and understand its difference from cruise yachts.
Every day, we will sail from 50 to 100 miles. The entire route is 1000 nautical miles.
