Lively Start To 45th Rolex Middle Sea Race

Oct 20 2024

The 45th Rolex Middle Sea Race started from Grand Harbour, Valletta, with 112 entrants experiencing lively conditions, aided by a strong southeasterly breeze.

By early evening, the fleet was on its way to Capo Passero, Sicily, with tactical decisions already proving crucial. At 16:00 CEST, Black Jack 100 led the race after overtaking Marvic 40, which had held off the larger yachts longer than expected.

Among the Class40s, Influence2 took an early lead before retiring, leaving Lucente to continue ahead. In IRC 6, South Kensington led, while Maltese boats JYS Jan and Janissah also made strong starts. In the IRC 5 class, Karpo from Slovenia held the top spot, followed by Lann Ael 3.

As wind gusts exceeded 20 knots, Elusive 2 excelled in the IRC 4 class, while Vineta led in the fifth start, closely followed by X-Day and Soleag. In IRC 3, Artie III moved into the class lead by evening.

The final start saw Bullitt take the early lead, but Black Jack later overtook, dominating both on the water and in IRC 1. Scallywag and Lucky also pushed forward as the leading boats headed north.
