 West Palm Beach, Florida – As we wrap up a very successful and competitive 2016 season, the shore crew, now based in West Palm Beach, Florida till late January 2017 is hard at work preparing for our first campaign of the season.  The crew is working to get Bella ready for our offshore racing campaign at the 2017 RORC Caribbean 600 Race.

 Hap Fauth and his crew will launch Bella for the first time in 2017 in English Harbour, Antigua in late January 2017 with a start date of the Caribbean 600 on Monday, February 22nd, 2017. #gobellago #bellamenteracing #westpalmbeach #offshoreracingprep #RORCCaribbean600  #peterhenderson #oliverdickens #shorecrew

Snakes and ladders out there today! 
We nailed the start but got pinned out by the 100-footers. Trailed at the top mark, but it was always going to be a long one. The Bella Mente squad stayed tight and fast. Solid day.
