Designed a few months ago, with a great deal of dissemination by the Sanremo Yacht Club, the first Winter Series for the Dragoni class took place this weekend, thanks also to the usual precious support of the Municipality of Sanremo and the Marina di Portosole. Crews from all over Europe will meet every month in Sanremo for these beautiful regattas. Start on Friday, November 26, with a good wind from the West and a wave formed; on Saturday, the strong wind unfortunately prevented us from going out to sea. On Sunday, a beautiful sunny day with a west – south west wind of 10 knots allowed us to carry out two good tests. Four tests completed, with one difference applied, with the victory of the Swedish Karl Gustaf Lohr in front of the yacht Club Sanremo Bunker Prince helmed by Yevgen Braslavets, in third place and equal merit Fever, an English boat with a purely Ligurian crew. It should be emphasized that these regattas have definitely contributed to tourism for hotels, restaurants and shops, but not only: there are three foreign owners who have bought and renovated villas of considerable importance on our hills, from Ventimiglia to Imperia. The activity of the Circolo Sanremese never stops and from Thursday the very young people of the Optimist will arrive, with the INTERNATIONAL MEDITERRANEAN MEETING; the following weekend the West Liguria Winter Championship will continue. On the weekend from 17 to 19 again the Winter series of the Dragons before the Christmas break.
