Superyacht Cup Palma 2022 is getting ready to greet new entries and familiar faces to the mid-summer festival of sail, as well as celebrating the welcome return of long-standing Preferred Hotel Partner, St. Regis Hotels & Resorts, part of Marriott International.
“We are delighted to be restoring our long and valued partnership with Superyacht Cup Palma,” said Candice D’Cruz, Vice President, Luxury Brands, Marriott International, Europe, Middle East & Africa. “And we are looking forward to bringing the St. Regis’s timeless legacy, cherished traditions, and bespoke service to one of the finest events in Mallorca.” Mallorca’s best address, the St. Regis Mardavall Mallorca Resort, will again host the glittering Owners' Dinner on its recently redesigned and restyled premises, long regarded as the centrepiece of Superyacht Cup Palma, itself the highlight of the Mediterranean superyacht racing season. Meanwhile, with memories of winter fading thoughts are turning to the enticing summer encounter, with new entries joining the growing fleet for the superyacht celebration in Mallorca's magnificent capital from June 29 to July 2. As ever, the fleet will be a blend of regular participants and first timers attracted by Superyacht Cup Palma's well-deserved reputation for excitement and entertainment both on and off the water.
Most recent entries include: the high-performance 32m Farr designed Kiboko Tres, whose owner will be familiar with SYC having raced Kiboko Dos in 2015 and 2016, the 27m David Pedrick designed modern classic Savannah, the 46m performance cruiser Ganesha, last seen in 2011 and 2021 respectively, and the elegant 40m ketch Huckleberry, which was awarded the inaugural North Sails Boat of the Day award at her last SYC appearance in 2019.
