Circolo Vela Gargnano is raedy to host the 72nd edition of the Centomiglia, the regatta of records, the longest-running regatta in Italy and the longest in Europe on inland waters.
The Centomiglia will be staged this year with a completely new formula. It will start with the youngsters and the first Cento Junior. It will then move on to the two-stage race for the 72nd Centomiglia. On Saturday it will go to the North with the Gorla Trophy, the Cento in the upper lake: the boats will sail from Bogliaco to the upper Benàco, and back; on Sunday instead South with the Bettoni Trophy, in the lower part of the lake: they will go South starting from Gargnano, both races will start at 8.30 am. The Centomiglia will award the victory with the sum of the times. The two regattas involve flying boats and multihulls.
The Centomiglia is much more than a race, it is a real celebration for sportsmen, locals and tourists, the prelude to what will happen in 2023 with the European Dream Cup.
