The Horus Superyacht Cup is a four day event; that attracts private mega sailing yachts to the bay of Palma for some superb day racing.
This is a unique event where social barriers are somehow blurred, as yacht owners and professional crew engage together in competitive sailing. This is also for many skippers and owners a unique opportunity to sail their own yacht to its full potential.
