Cape 31 Class Starts 2023 With a Bang Worldwide
The first Cape 31 event of 2023 took place in the Solent with ‘Round 0’, the Royal Southern May Regatta. The mainly light airs event, won by Mike Bartholomew’s ‘Tokoloshe’ is a warm-up for the Class before the scoring events kick off later in the month at the RORC Vice Admirals Cup.
The Cape 31 is expanding rapidly worldwide, with new delivered in 2023 to fleets building in Italy, France, and Hong Kong. It’s no surprise that the experienced dealers in these locations (The Tortarolo’s in Savona Shipyard, Marc Pajot in St. Tropez, and now Jamie Boag in Asia) are actively building excitement and supporting owners to help build competitive sustainable fleets.
