Boom Bap Wear Match Series is an experience to enjoy with friends, family and sailing fans. The last three matches were clearly a big success by all involved and the visitors described the experience as unique and special due to its great atmosphere.
Boom Bap Wear Match Series uses the America's Cup format - the most famous and prestigious international yachting regatta.
The competition is done with Beneteau First Class 7.5 boats, participating some of the biggest names in the national and international sailing teams and aims to highlight the ability and the talent of each team.
The intense racing is just as exciting for the spectators as it is strategically, tactically and physically challenging for the competing crews. The prize money is €2,500 and the winner of three Grand Finals could win a prize of €10,000.
This is an event not to be missed!
