The most amazing night, that of the 151 Miglia

The night will be the protagonist of the 151 Miglia– Cetilar® Trophy’s eighth edition. Those who are used to going out to sea know that when the sun goes down, ambience changes and carries us into a strange unique dimension. A dimension where eyes lose their functions while the other senses intensify. Ears become sensitive to the noises of the night: the hypnotic clicking of the halyard and the blowing sails, the most caring companions of the tired crew. Smells seem to get stronger too, the salty air makes us feel the unique scent of the sea and the wind brings a chill on the skin. Feelings and emotions are coming forth while thinking about those who used to sail without the modern devices by relying on the stars to navigate in the dark of the night.

 

If 151 Miglia were a book, night would have been a special, separate chapter. The night represents one of the most thrilling facets of the entire regatta: losing the line of sight among the boats, uncertainty in predicting the evolution of the race that leads to the excited anticipation of sunrise that finally reveals the positions and tells us who will fight for victory.

The night has a particular charm also for those who participate to the 151 Miglia without any competitive ambition, for the pleasure to take part in one of the most important sailing events in the Mediterranean Sea.

During the night of the 151 Miglia no one sleeps: crew members are telling tales of the sea and this is when those magical bonds are built that will last forever.

 

A unique atmosphere is therefore the protagonist of the 151 Miglia 2017. An edition that will bring innovation in many aspects – as the new title sponsor Cetilar® and the early opening of the registrations – as well as many familiarities: such as the route, which has become a classic one in the Mediterranean Sea, the great teamwork among the main sponsors as Pharmanutra, Rigoni D’Asiago and Slam, in cooperation with the Yacht Club Punta, Yacht Club Repubblica Marinara and Yacht Club Livorno that will contribute to offer a unique experience to all participants of this great adventure.

 

When the day goes by, the night falls, the most amazing night, that of the 151 Miglia.
