In the rippling waters of a tense sirocco, the J24 “La Superba” of the Italian Navy, helmed by Ignazio Bonanno, closes the 47th Winter Championship of Anzio and Nettuno in first place. “La Superba”, which holds the European and national class title, thus confirms the leadership also in the Lazio area.

Mathematically acquired the first place on the podium one day early, the Navy boat honored the tests of the last day of the championship with two more victories, made particularly demanding by the marine weather conditions.

Excellent fifth place in the final classification of the championship also for the J24 “Arpione” of the Navy Sailing Section of Anzio, helmed by Michele Potenza.

Both boats are preparing to face the national stage of the J24 class which will be held in Anzio at the end of March. This year "La Superba" will also have to defend the European title in Ireland next August.

Participation in the Anzio and Nettuno area saw the involvement of the Navy also with two other boats in the J24 class and two more boats in the Offshore Championship.

The Anzio Navy Sailing Section contributed, with the local clubs, to the organization of the event.
