Racing will take place Tuesday (4/14), Wednesday (4/15), Friday (4/17) and Saturday (4/18), during which time the team, along with the rest of the 80-boat fleet (to-date), will compete in a variety of challenging coastal courses that weave through and around the reefs and smaller islands surrounding St. Barth.

What a ride! Bella Mente was first to finish in th What a ride! Bella Mente was first to finish in the Nassau Cup Ocean Race, smashing the 2013 record! 177.7 nautical miles in 9:20:49, averaging 19+ knots across the Gulf Stream. 🌊💨

From Mike Sanderson, afterguard: “To say we were a little nervous about the forecast was an understatement! But it turned into a dream run—fast, wet, and high-speed reaching. When you’re sailing to the Bahamas in warm waters, it’s pretty special!!”

From tactician Terry Hutchinson: “Huge shoutout to the Bella Mente shore team—MVPs of this race. Reliability was key, and the boat was immaculately prepared. The sailors pushed hard and were rewarded with a record and a podium spot!”

Next stop: Europe to defend our European Championship in Sorrento, Italy! 🇮🇹🏆
