Fabijan Roiฤ‡-Boris ลฝiลพiฤ‡‘s Class 40 Crazy

With the arrival on Friday, May 31, at 4:08 p.m. of Sergio Corazza’s Jod C, which won the Soligo Never Give Up Trophy, the following officially goes on record the 45th edition of The Five Hundred Pellegrini Trophy, organized by Circolo Nautico Santa Margherita with the support of the City of Caorle, Main Sponsor Pellegrini Group and Technical Partner Montura.

The international offshore regatta, valid for the title of FIV Italian Offshore Champion on the Caorle-Sansego (CRO)-Tremiti Islands-Sansego-Caorle route, was held from May 26 to June 1, 2019.

The program of the event, which opened in the heart of the city of Caorle on Friday, May 24, with a sailor-fisherman gastronomic competition in the Caorle Fishing Harbor where a number of participating boats were housed, succeeded in its intent to bring deep-sea sailing closer to the public in a festive atmosphere and seafaring spirit.

The 45th La Cinquecento Trofeo Pellegrini was one of the toughest editions in recent years, so much so that it brought back the slogan “Two men, one boat, one feat.”

Starting from Caorle on Sunday, May 26, with light winds and warm sunshine, from the very first day of racing, heading for the Sansego waypoint, the fleet encountered strong storms with sirocco winds up to 35 knots and waves another three meters, which forced them into a challenging upwind.

The return leg, with a few wind holes in the Tremiti Islands area where the cards were reshuffled and changes in leading positions took place, was also characterized by widespread bad weather and strong winds.

In this memorable edition, which saw half the fleet at the finish line, more than ever before, the winner was the one who finished it-regardless of the result-and the one who lived the race to the last edge, the last change of sails, the last turn with sun and wind, rain and waves, will carry with them an almost epic memory, of an edition in many ways unique.

The final rankings rewarded the results at sea and at the calculation of the compensated times the overall winners of La Cinquecento Trofeo Pellegrini 2019 500X2 ORC are Fabijan Roiฤ‡-Boris ลฝiลพiฤ‡ who crossed the finish line on Wednesday, May 29 at 22:03:25. Croatian youth with their Class 40 Crazy yes also win the Pellegrini Line Honour Trophy, the Leonardo Bronca Challenge Trophy intended for the best result of the youngest couple and the Victories Challenge Trophy, intended for the best result in real time at the 500×2 monohull category.

Second overall 500X2 ORC position for the other Class 40 in the race, Kika Green Challenge by Alessio and Cristiano Verardo, second at the finish line in real time and third overall for the Sun fast 3600 Skip Intro of Marco Romano paired with experienced sailor-sailor Paolo Favaro, who led a flawless race always in pursuit of the two leader.

In the XTutti category confirmed the success of Super Atax of Marco Bertozzi, already the winner in real time, who also takes first place Overall in the 500XTAll ORC, also winning the Challenge Trophy that bears his name and which “captain” Bertozzi hopes to personally award next year to a valiant crew, to whom he throws the challenge.
