RC44 – 44Cup Nanny Cay

 It’s called getting a grip on the season from the start, as demonstrated by Nico Poons and his crew on Charisma from Yacht Club de Monaco, who pulled off a superb performance in the Caribbean, coming in the top three in eight of nine races. After a thrilling battle with Aleph Racing, Nico Poons, 44Cup champion 2022-23, sailed superbly throughout the regatta, particularly in the last race. Thanks to clever tactics and total mastery of the changing conditions, the crew maintained their advantage to the end to win the stage.

Monaco shines in the Caribbean sun

Vladimir Prosikhin and his Team Nika finished a solid 3rd place after a great comeback in the last few races. Midway, Team Nika managed to dominate two key races proving their ability to compete with the best and upset the leaderboard. As for Torbjörn Törnqvist (Artemis Racing) he and his crew clinched 6th after a regatta of highs and lows. The RC44 circuit continues in Porto Cervo, Sardinia, 15-18 May with the other teams no doubt determined to dethrone Charisma.
