Rolex Middle Sea Race commences

Swan 60 Petite Flamme starts the 2014 Rolex Middle Sea race today in Malta.  Co-founded in 1968 by the Royal Malta Yacht Club and the Royal Ocean Racing Club, this is a classic offshore race reputed to be the most beautiful race course in the world.

Dmitry Samohkin and his crew on board Petite Flamme will experience the unsurpassed scenery as they pass a number of islands marking the course. This is a true challenge for the skipper and crew who will have to cope with the often changeable and demanding conditions.
