- 2024 Swan Bonifacio Challenge - Wrap Up
The first edition of the Swan Bonifacio Challenge, part of The Nations League circuit reserved for the Swan One Design classes, concluded today after five days of great sailing and social activities. The Corsican event represented the second stage of the season for the ClubSwan 36, while it was the first of the year for the larger ClubSwan 50, following the warm-up in April at Marina di Scarlino.
The Mistral wind, along with the warm welcome from the city of Bonifacio and the friendly atmosphere among owners and crews on land, was the main feature of the regatta. It is here, in the Strait of Bonifacio, that the wind truly shows its best. After a first day with three very technical and well-received races by both fleets, where the best of the week already stood out, a day followed with increasing Mistral winds and a single race with wind speeds from 16 to 20 knots.
This was followed by a forced stop yesterday due to formed waves and wind over 25 knots, and a final race today with powerful conditions, with Mistral winds around 20 knots and waves. The conditions were certainly not easy, but some crews in both fleets stood out for their skill in handling their boats, expertly taming them among the waves and gusts, choosing the right sides even after not always perfect starts. We are talking about the winners, the Italian Cuordileone in ClubSwan 36 and the German Hatari in ClubSwan 50.
