The Aeronautica Militare team takes the top step of the podium for the Figaro 3 category, after a grueling stage that saw it arrive second from Cattolica to Vieste.
The Aeronautica Militare managed to grab first place by winning today's inshore race, followed by the Circolo Nautico Sanbenedettese team, which came first in the off-shore race, and the Guardia di Finanza team, which came third. The stage ranking was therefore determined by the results achieved in both the offshore and inshore races.
Led by the Sant'Eufemia Lighthouse, the first Figaro 3 arrived because they managed to take advantage of the breezes coming from the south. Subsequently, the regatta was conditioned by very light winds and for this reason the arrival of the last boats was completed only on 8 June.
For the WASZP category and for the long-awaited debut of the WINGFOIL in this 2025 edition, the thermal wind conditions have led to a continuous change in the regatta program reserved for them but finally, today, in the stretch of water in front of Marina Piccola, it was possible to witness their spectacular evolutions.
For the WASZP category, the first classified team is that of the Guardia di Finanza while in second place is the Royal Madras team followed by Verein Seglerhaus am Wannsee. For the WINGFOIL, the victory goes to the Guardia di Finanza team, followed respectively by the Aeronautica Militare team and the Goztope Yalken team.
Organized by Difesa Servizi in collaboration with the Navy and SSI Sports & Events, with the support of ENIT-Italian Tourism Agency, the tour's main partner, the Italian Sailing Federation, the patronage of Coni and the Presidency of the Council of Ministers-Department for Sport as institutional partner, the Marina Militare Nastro Rosa Tour is now heading for Brindisi for the 4th stage of this 5th edition.
