Phuket King's Cup Regatta 2024 Overall

In the ever-so-close Class Zero — the battle of the TP52s — Kevin Whitcraft's Team Vayu beat Ray Roberts' Team Hollywood cementing victory on the final day of racing with Her Majesty Queen Suthida Bajrasudhabimalalakshana crewing on board. The racing in this class was exceptionally close with Vayu beating Team Hollywood by seconds in many of the races, including one race, earlier in the week, which saw fifteen tacks off the beat. His Majesty King Maha Vajiralongkorn Phra Vajiraklaochaoyuhua climbed on board and steered Vayu to the start line, a terrific moment for Thai sailing as this regatta was first held in 1987 as part of the national celebrations marking the auspicious 60th birthday of His Majesty's father, King Bhumibol Adulyadej. Queen Suthida also graciously presided over the regatta's royal awards ceremony held at the Beyond Kata Resort later in the day.
