Vemite at the VELA Cup in Sardinia! Summer cruising for an avid sailor is the best way to relax during the vacations, unplug from daily commitments and tasks, and recharge with a nice positive energy for the new season. But the beauty of cruising is also exploring new stretches of coastline, regions far from one’s home base, and destinations about which one may have fantasized during the winter. Not to mention that spending several days in the boat improves one’s feeling for equipment, facilities and adjustments each time. Inevitably, one grows as a sailor from a technical standpoint and an awareness of being at sea.
