Swan 60 Vertical Smile is currently racing in the Regatta Pirelli – Coppa Carlo Negri, taking place 28 April – 1 May. The 44th edition of the regatta begun in Santa Margherita Ligure, and with over 100 boats entered year on year, it is clear to see that this event is loved by many owners and crews.

Organised by the Yacht Club Italiano, Regatta Pirelli – Coppa Carlo Negri offers entrants four days of racing in the beautiful Italian setting, accompanied by a social programme which includes pasta parties, a crew party and the final prize giving, where prizes on offer include a BMW Mini.

This is the first race of the season for Swan 60 Vertical Smile and Danish owner, Mr Lerbrandt was looking forward to the event: “Pirelli is the first race of the season for us and we are greatly looking forwards to it. We participate in this race because we love high heels and Italian racing.”

Taking part in the Coppa Carlo Negri will ensure Vertical Smile and her crew are more than ready for the inaugural Gazprom Swan 60 Class circuit, which begins in May with the Delta Lloyd North Sea Regatta in Scheveningen.
