Less than four weeks to the fourth edition of the Gstaad Yacht Club Centenary Trophy, and more yachts are entering the regatta, that can now be considered as the true rendez-vous for the oldest ladies of the classic yachts circuit. Scheduled for Thursday, 2nd October 2014 the event will once more be the focal point of classic racing at the Voiles the Saint-Tropez, hosting event of the regatta.
For the fourth consecutive year the Centenary Trophy will gather one hundred years and more old yachts that will compete with an especially created handicap system in a pursuit race, a format that has proved extremely attractiveness for the sailors and the public, as it is easy to understand and follow with the first boat to cross the line off the St Tropez breakwater to be declared the winner.
As more owners confirm their participation, up goes also the number of yachts that are new to the event and will be fighting for the first time to be awarded with the exclusive trophy created by Wakely and Wheeler of London in 1911.
Among them is one of the best renown sailors worldwide and an icon of the America’s Cup: Bruno Troublé, who will be able to join the “Centenary Club” this year as gaff cutter Olympian has finally turned 100 years old.
