Puig Vela Clàssica Regatta folds its sails until 2024, the year in which it will share the waters of Barcelona with the contenders for the America’s Cup, after a successful edition in which almost 50 yachts and 400 participants have competed for the various trophies up for grabs.
With Argyll, Marigan, Disparate, Argos, Ojala II, Legolas and Viveka as the winners of the general classification of their respective categories, the 16th edition of the competition bids farewell until September 2024.
The third and final day of the 16th Puig Vela Clàssica began with the parade of the fleet, which, after casting off at the Real Club Náutico de Barcelona, passed in an orderly fashion over the large bridge that links the Portal de la Pau with the Maremagnum. As it passed, the public was able to enjoy the slow passage of the boats and a presentation of each yacht by the president of the Spanish Vintage Boat Association, Leonardo García de Vicentiis.
