Grand Final of vintage boats participating in the
Prada Trophy, with 100 yachts. There are 11 winners,
divided by class. Amongst the most notable, `Chaplin',
with, at the helm, an expert sailor, Nucci Novi
Cappellini, vice presidente of the World Sailing
Federation, and ex-Culture Councillor of the Liguria
region. In another class is 'Agneta' which has been
the favourite boat of the lawyer Agnelli, that he has
used for the last 25 years. Also winning, `Zefir', the
19 metre boat of rockstar Pete Townshend, guitarist of
The Who, who whilst sailing thinks up new musical
ideas. Now the fleet moves to Monte Carlo for the
second stage.
