PROMOTE, CHALLENGE, EXPOSE: CAPE 31!
With Cape 31, we are entering a new and exciting regatta class that ideally combines fast-paced sailing and targeted youth development. Cape 31 is the perfect match for our RC44 campaign. With its remarkable handling, our new C31 yacht is the ideal springboard for talented Swiss regatta sailors. We are looking forward to taking on new challenges in this class – and to playing a more active role in shaping the future of sailing.

A sensation in the heart of Switzerland
Black Star Sailing is still thrilled about the successful hosting of the 2024 World Championship in Brunnen this summer. The regatta on Lake Lucerne was a nice change to the 44Cup’s event calendar and a perfect opportunity to present the Black Star Sailing Team’s ‘home lake’ and thus Switzerland as a sailing destination to foreign countries interested in regattas. The RC44 event management returned the compliment for the successful World Championship event with the local event team with an impressive video summary of the four-day world-class event. More about the 2024 44Cup World Championship Brunnen on our event page and in our news.
