What is the VELA CUP?
The VELA Cup is the series of sailing events, in the most beautiful places in Italy, open to every boat, regardless of rig, year and size. No bureaucracy or complicated regatta regulations, at the VELA Cup we use the rules to prevent collisions at sea, those rules we use every day to sail. An event for sailboats and sailors of all kinds, with a dedicated ranking for boats over 25 years old, even if they are built in series or fiberglass.
