To continue the Viper\u00a0640 <\/strong>lifestyle of racing great boats in nice places, we are delighted to be able to announce a series of Viper 640 races for Spring 2019<\/strong>, in the beautiful Bay of Palma<\/strong>, kindly hosted by the prestigeous Real Club Nautico De Palma.<\/strong> Situated on the waterfront in Palma, just a stones throw from the old walled city and the iconic Cathedral, and 15 minutes from the Airport.<\/p>\n

\"Palma\"<\/p>\n

The Yacht Club itself is\u00a0 probably best known in dinghy circles for running the Princess Sofia Regatta, in early April. Palma is also a popular choice of winter base for many Olympic teams, due to it’s warm climate and fine sailing areas, and easy access from all over Europe.<\/p>\n

Our prime objective with the Viper is to provide competitive racing, in a rewarding boat, in great venues. In the last 2 \/3 years, we have raced in Riva Del Garda<\/strong>,\u00a0 Italy, Bermuda<\/strong> just before the AC, Miami<\/strong> in the Bacardi Cup, the North Americans in the Gulf of Mexico in Fort Walton, Florida<\/strong> last fall, and our inaugral World Championships on the Swan River in Perth, WA<\/strong> last February, and now in Palma<\/strong> through the coming spring. The class is now World Sailing approved, and is holding it’s next World Championships in Long Beach, LA <\/strong>, in August 2019. Our intention is to hold our first European Worlds in Palma in 2021, and therefore we hope that this winter series will be a regular one in the build up to that event, and that a strong local fleet will develop.<\/p>\n
