The 35th Jornadas N\u00e1uticas Pitiusas race will be setting sail on 11 October. The oldest cruiser regatta in Ibiza and Formentera \u2014 which started out as the Vuelta a Ibiza y Formentera in the 1970s with the Jabeque de Oro and the Jabeque de Plata Trophies \u2014 has since evolved into its current format that now combines racing with a social slant.<\/p>\n
The race is a qualifier for the RANC Balearic Cup and is organised by Club N\u00e1utico Ibiza, the Royal Spanish Sailing Federation, the Royal Spanish Cruiser Association, and the Balearic Sailing Federation, bolstered by the sponsorship of Marina Ibiza, Trasmapi, and Insotel, along with the collaboration of Club N\u00e1utico de San Antonio and Marina la Savina.<\/p>\n
This thirty-fifth edition will feature yachts between ten and fifteen metres LOA from mainland Spain, the other Balearic Islands, and the rest of Europe. In total, more than thirty top-rate yachts that will be competing for three days to get their names etched on the trophy.<\/p>\n
Around 250 sailors from Spain, Ireland, the UK, Belgium, France, Italy, Norway, Germany, and Finland, to name just a few countries, will be taking advantage of the gorgeous Ibizan climate and the great race schedule to enjoy their favourite sport.<\/p>\n
The programme of the 35th Jornadas N\u00e1uticas Pitiusas regatta will begin on Thursday 10 October with the opening of the regatta office for the registration of participants, followed at 7.00 pm by a captains’ briefing at the Sa Calma restaurant in Marina Ibiza.<\/p>\n
