A week of shifting breeze and bursts of Mistral pushed the fleet to its limits and North-powered yachts answered, winning 4 of the 5 overall titles. In the @imamaxi Grand Prix World Championship, Giovanni Lombardi Stronati's @team__django stormed to victory. In Maxi 3, Aldo Parisotto's Oscar 3 claimed first place while Ganesha secured third. Maxi 4 belonged to Ricardo de Michele's H2O, with Gerard Logel's Robas rounding out the podium in third. And, in the Supermaxi class, it was Juan Ball's Moat dominating first place, with Marco Vogele's Inoui not far behind in third. From light airs to heavy breeze, the regatta showcased just how far design, teamwork, and #North3Di performance can carry a fleet at the highest level. Congratulations to all North-powered teams!
From the southeast trades to the milk run, through the ITCZ — the doldrums — up through the northeast trades, and then into the westerlies at 35-40 degrees north where it gets serious. Big lows form over Russia, roll across the Pacific, and feed the Aleutian Low in a constant battle with the North Pacific High. Know the system before you go.
