Entities: Phytoervas 4Z · Ilhabela International Sailing Week · Phytoervas · Rafael Martins · Marcelo Bellotti

Overview

The 53rd Ilhabela International Sailing Week, opened on 26 July, survived a severe windstorm on 29 July that forced a day‑long cancellation. Racing resumed on 30 July in the Canal de São Sebastião, and the first post‑storm day on 31 July saw Onda (ICs) claim the Super 40 class with 11 points and Phytoervas 4Z finish runner‑up after two victories and a second place. Imperador Pirata no Vento Azul captured the traditional Team Trophy and the historic Pen Duick II.

The week concluded on 1 August with 127 boats and more than 1,000 sailors from Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay competing across ORC, C30, HPE25, BRA‑RGS, RGS Clássicos and RGS Cruiser categories. Onda (ICs) secured the Super 40 championship, while Phytoervas 4Z remained second overall. The Team Trophy stayed with Imperador Pirata no Vento Azul. Class winners were Crioula 52 (VDS) in ORC, Plâncton in BRA‑RGS, Blue Wind in BRA‑RGS Cruiser, Madrugada in Classics, Relaxa Building in C30 and Ciribaí in HPE25. Olympic and world‑class sailors such as Robert Scheidt, Lars Grael and Samuel Albrecht participated, underscoring the event’s status as Latin America’s premier ocean‑yacht competition.
