Glamorous La
Canzone del Mare is considered as one of Capri’s most
famous establishments. The picturesque lido typifies the
heart and soul of Capri. Located in the sunny Bay of Marina
Piccola with stunning vistas of the Faraglioni and the turquoise
waters of the Tyrranean Sea, La Canzone del Mare has been
the realm of celebrities for decades and continues to attract
an international clientele. |

Last night,
guests of Rolex Capri Sailing Week reveled in the hedonistic
atmosphere, enjoying a gourmet buffet in the comfort of magnificent
terraces at the water’s edge. After enjoying a fine
dinner, the party was treated to a special video presentation
of Rolex Capri Sailing Week, including the stunning scenery
of the Rolex Volcano Race. The ensemble danced the night
away to live music from famous Caprese band, Anema e Core. |

Today, there
was some spectacular racing in the Bay of Naples for the
final day of Rolex Capri Sailing Week. A light blanket of
cloud high above the magnificent island of Capri signified
a steady gradient breeze. Out on the six-mile windward leeward
course, twelve knots of wind and glorious sunshine provided
ideal conditions to bring the inshore regatta to conclusion. |

In the Comet
Class, Marco Paolucci’s Libertine won the
first race of the day putting pressure on the class leader,
but Alberto Franchella’s Farewell 3 won the
last two races of the regatta to take the title. The Swan
45 Class has enjoyed some scintillating racing.
Henrik Brandis’ German entry Earlybird won
the first two races of the day, stamping their authority
on the event to take the class victory. Andrea Masi’s Ulika has
sailed with precision all week and finished the regatta
in style, winning the last race and securing second place
for the class. |

The ORC division
produced a convincing winner: Vincenzo De Blasio’s Scugnizza won
all but one of the seven races. Olympic medalist, America’s
Cup and World Match Racing exponent, Paolo Cian was calling
tactics on Scugnizza.
"Today was a good example of the fantastic conditions in Capri," said
Cian. "I have been sailing here for a very long time and Capri brings back
very happy memories for me, especially winning the J24 World Championship. Scugnizza is
a small boat in this fleet and we were always conscious of trying to stay in
clear air. I am very happy for Vincenzo and all of the crew who have sailed so
well all week. Capri is my favourite place to come to, especially for sailing." |
