From September 25 to 27, Marina Vela Barcelona will host this sporting event called to become the regatta offshore Spanish of international reference.
For the second consecutive year, Marina Vela, together with Skipper Club Náutico and Diversión Náutica, organizes the new edition of the Golden Cup Barcelona Barcelona Marina Vela. The new Barcelona Marina thus becomes the perfect setting to receive the best deep-sea sailors in the Mediterranean, thanks to its nautical services, its brand-new facilities and its unbeatable location in the Port of Barcelona.
The new edition will set sail today Friday, September 25, from Marina Vela, at 17 p.m., and although I had planned a 220-mile route, which passed through Mallorca. Finally, and for meteorological reasons, it will travel 132 miles with the Barcelona-Blanes-Barcelona-Blanes-Barcelona route.
The decision to change the route is based on the advantages offered by this option, since coastal navigation avoids the formation of seas, passes in front of the Maresme ports and is a shorter route in sections. Furthermore, it allows, if deemed appropriate, to further shorten it to 2 sections (Barcelona-Blanes-Barcelona) and/or postpone the departure if necessary.
The Golden Cup Barcelona Marina Vela counts toward the Spanish Cup for Singles and Twos, and is open to cruises with a full crew. It is captained by the president of the Skipper Yacht Club, Enrique Curt, who has promoted major regattas of reference in the country, such as the Copa del Rey, the Atlantic Grand Prix or the Salt Route.
In order to minimize health risks, the Organizing Committee has been forced to suspend social events and will apply the strict protocol established by the Royal Spanish Sailing Federation itself. The Golden Cup once again puts Barcelona at the center of deep-sea sailing.
