Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup 2024 | Allegra - Paul Larsen Interview

Australian Paul Larsen still holds the World Sailing Speed Record some 12 years after he achieved that extraordinary feat. His need for speed has not diminished since as he is now sailing aboard Adrian Keller’s rapid multihull Allegra. He describes some of the unique aspects of racing large multihulls, especially in confined waters.

Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup 2024 | Luce Guida - Craig Clifford Interview

The Clifford family are best known for their highly successful Incat business building large commercial multihulls in their Tasmanian yard. Craig, who with his father Bob won Line Honours in the 1994 Sydney Hobart Yacht Race, chartered the Vismara 80 Luce Guida for the Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup in Porto Cervo. Sailing with three Italian crew and a group of his Tassie & English friends they ended the week having to retire from the final race with technical problems; but that did not dull their enjoyment of the week in this spectacular venue.
