The Bella Mente has left Hawaii and is in route to San Francisco in the first leg of it’s trip back to the East coast to the Merchant Marines. The current Bella Mente is ours no more. Pirate, JV, and Matt are bringing the boat back to the West Coast with a few of the cadets. All of our focus now goes into the new boat. Our containers will head to Newport where one will go to the Merchant Marines, and the other one will get gutted and refit for the new boat. We have received a new container which will have to get fitted out.

About Bella Mente
The original Bella Mente Racing campaign kicked off in 2006 with Key West Race Week, and since then owner and skipper Hap Fauth has had three additional racing yachts in the program.
Launched in September of 2018, the current Bella Mente is a Maxi 72 designed by Botin Partners in Spain and built by New England Boatworks in Rhode Island.
