PAPA Regatta 2021 had it all — intense racing, raw emotions, and the true spirit of competition in every kind of weather. There were victories that lit up the day, and setbacks that forced teams to withdraw due to damage. Some waited hours for the wind to settle, while others saw races canceled entirely by the fierce Bora wind. A regatta full of drama, energy, and unforgettable moments. More to come in the next videos — stay tuned!

During the race, the course included a natural obstacle — a small, rocky island. The depths were safe, and the skipper decided to take a tight line around it. But just behind the island, the wind shifted unexpectedly, and a sudden gust drove the yacht’s bow straight toward the rocks. With minimal room to maneuver, the skipper reacted quickly and managed to regain control. However, in the process of steering clear, the keel scraped against the rocks. The result: a few scratches and the loss of half the team’s security deposit. A hard lesson learned — always keep a safe distance from the rocks! #PAPARegatta #PAPARegatta2021 #TheArtOfSailing #ArtOfSailing #DangerousRocks #RocksCrash #CroatiaSailing #CroatiaYachting #SailingRace #SailingFails
