52 SUPER SERIES Royal Cup in Lanzarote

Overview

The 52 SUPER SERIES Royal Cup commenced in Puerto Calero, Lanzarote, as the fourth event of the 2026 season. The competition began with 13 teams participating under varying weather conditions. Initial practice sessions saw victories by ‘No Way Back’ and ‘Alkedo Cetilar’, with competitors noting a shift toward more manageable winds compared to the previous month.

As the regatta progressed into the opening races, the Thai-flagged Vayu, led by the Whitcraft family, established an early lead with a three-point advantage over Provezza. Provezza and Platoon Aviation remained in close contention for the top positions while navigating unpredictable offshore breezes. Meanwhile, the defending world champions on the boat Sled experienced difficulties due to tactical errors and wind conditions, resulting in a lower ranking.
