The most amazing Crew Presentation

The Ultimate Crew Parade: Kicking Off the Catamarans Cup in Style!

The night before the first leg is when the magic begins. This is the legendary Crew Presentation Evening, where the contestants aren't just sailors; they're stars on the rise.

Imagine the scene as each crew takes the stage, not in their sailing gear, but in outfits that scream imagination and innovation. The themes? As boundless as the ocean. Pirates, sea animals and even rock bands or national outfits. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. There's no telling what other fantastical, whimsical, or downright bizarre themes the crews might conjure up from the depths of their creativity. Each crew makes their grand entrance not just in their eye-popping attire but also to the beat of their chosen anthem—a catchy tune that encapsulates their spirit and gets the crowd grooving.

And then, after the last crew has been introduced, comes the moment of truth—the voting! The special jury of the Catamarans Cup will choose the winner! The most innovative, clever and catchy outfit will win! And this is the first prize given during the Catamarans Cup week setting the tone for the competition ahead.

Beyond the thrill of the sail, lies an exciting side event!

Catamarans Cup stands out for the special and fun events that includes! One of them is the renowned Cook-Off Competition, that takes place at night after the first leg of racing. A different contest where each crew gets a chance to showcase their cooking skills and pay homage to their homeland’s cuisine!

After finishing the race and as the sun goes down, crews transform their boats into kitchens and give their best to bring out some dishes that will impress everyone! Early at night, people start gathering and a medley of aromas from all around the world create the perfect atmosphere for the show to begin.

Every crew display their dishes for others to sample and savor, paired with beverages from their country, trying to bring people to their table and gain their favoring vote! This format encourages not just sharing of food but also stories, laughter and a deep bonding.

The judges are none other than the participants themselves – the captain of each yacht will vote the favorite dish of him and his crew. The final winner – the Master Chef of the Catamarans Cup- is announced and as you might already know in case you have joined our regatta before, the party now kicks off!
