DSK-Comifin triumphant at Copa del Rey

03 August 2008

It was Danilo Salsi’s DSK-Comifin, with Chris Larson on tactics, that came out on top at the Copa del Rey. With 12 races, the fleet of 16 Swan 45s enjoyed a competitive week of racing in Palma.

In second place was RW Bols with Swan 45 No Limits-Boldit, followed by Tea Ekengren-Sauren in third with Blue Nights. Thanks to a bullet in the final race, the Finnish owner managed to oust Codecasa/Battistella’s Jeroboam Ca’nova for the podium finish.

The next event for the Swan 45 Class is the World Championships organised by the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda, from 8-14 September.
