Al suono dei cannoni della Saluting Battery, una flotta internazionale di 140 yacht ha tagliato la linea del via della 43° edizione della Rolex Middle Sea Race, organizzata dal Royal Malta Yacht Club (RMYC). La classe MOCRA, che conta quest’anno sull’inedita partecipazione di ben cinque trimarani MOD70, in osservanza delle procedure di partenza apre la strada delle 606 miglia nautiche di giro antiorario della Sicilia e delle sue isole, con partenza e arrivo a La Valletta. Una regata che si preannuncia lunga e combattuta, in condizioni di venti molto leggeri dovuti ad un’alta pressione sul Mediterraneo. E se normalmente per terminare il percorso gli yacht più veloci impiegano circa due giorni, secondo i modelli di oggi, la sfida si potrebbe protrarre dai 4 ai 6 giorni. In competizione con Giovanni Soldini e l’equipaggio di Maserati Multi70, che viaggia in configurazione volante, ci sono Axciss (ITA), dell’armatore Cosimo Malesci con skipper Eric Defert; Mana (ITA) di Riccardo Pavoncelli con skipper Paul Larsen; Snowflake (USA), ex Phaedo 3, dell’armatore Frank Slootman con skipper il neozelandese Gavin Brady e Zoulou (FRA), ex Powerplay, di Erik Maris con a bordo Loick Peyron. In classe MOCRA, corrono anche Dakota (NOR), Kia Ora (FR), Minimole (ITA). “Purtroppo il meteo per noi non è assolutamente favorevole. Ci aspettiamo una regata molto lenta, con pochissimo vento e con i nostri foil in acqua non siamo certo i favoriti”. dice Giovanni Soldini, al momento di salpare: “C’è comunque grande entusiasmo: ci sono cinque MOD70 ed è la prima volta che cinque barche così si affrontano in acqua tutte insieme e quindi il morale è alto e come al solito cercheremo di vendere cara la pelle anche se sarà un’impresa”. A bordo di Maserati Multi70, Giovanni Soldini naviga insieme a 8 velisti professionisti: il boat captain Guido Broggi, Matteo Soldini, Francesco Pedol, Oliver Herrera Perez, Frédéric Le Peutrec, Alberto Riva e Francesco Malingri (media man). #MaseratiMulti70 #RolexMiddleSeaRace Sito web: https://maserati.soldini.it/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/giovannisoldini/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/giovanni_soldini/ Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/giovannisoldini/

This boat is perfectly named as “Simplicity” is what the Canadian built Nonsuch is all about: one sail, one sheet, one halyard. We are thrilled to have a beautiful 30′ example on our Sales Dock as they very rarely come to market! Designed by Mark Ellis, Canadian Boating magazine sums up this cat-rigged vessel as ” being able to be sailed by 1 person who has no desire to leave the comfort of the cockpit”. But don’t let this description mislead you as there is tons of room inside and out for crew and guests. Topsides the large Main is easily handled hoisting via electric winch and lazy jacks make light work of folding the sail at the end of the day. All lines lead aft with self-tailing winches and the large cockpit is protected by a dodger and bimini. Anchoring is made easy by the Lewmar electric windlass and this vessel comes complete with davits for easy launching and recovery of a dinghy. Down below, the rig design creates an extremely open cabin space that feels much larger than her 30′ LOA. Entering the cabin you find a large comfortable seating area, galley with fridge/freezer, lots of storage, 2 burner stove and oven and pressurized hot and cold water. Moving forward, the large head (with separate shower stall that can also be used as a wet locker) can be accessed either through the main cabin or by the forward master cabin with large pullman style berth and opening hatches and ports for ventilation throughout the vessel. Available to view by appointment, Simplicity comes with assumable moorage at our popular Sidney location. Please contact our Vancouver Island Sales Office at 250-656-5832 to schedule a showing.

Getting hit with another storm tonight. Got some beautiful video and photos out of it. Seems like it never stops storming since we moved onto the boat!
