A hundred and eighty three pages to tell the story, through breathtaking photographs, of one of the most exclusive and evocative events in sailing: the Perini Navi Cup. The book- on sale in the best Italian bookstores- was born from the desire on the part of the Group to share the emotions and the highlights of the third edition of their regatta, a highly anticipated event in the nautical world.
Perini Navi Cup Book: The most beautiful images from the Perini Navi Cup
The book is loaded with photographs, witnesses to the extraordinary meeting of technology and elegance that characterizes Perini Navi yachts with the forces of nature. The Perini Navi Cup- that will be held this year from September 1-4 in Porto Cervo, Sardinia- is not only a performance-oriented regatta, but also a time for admirers of Perini style to get to know each other and share the sense of belonging to the large “Perini Family” and the values that distinguish it.
The photographs in the book are by Carlo Borlenghi, Giuliano Sargentini and Camila Bertoldo. Text is by David Glenn, Tork Buckley, Matteo Zaccagnino and Synersea.
First held in 2004, the Perini Navi Cup is an event dedicated exclusively to Perini Navi yachts which race head on head in the waters around Sardinia’s Costa Smeralda. The second and third editions of this regatta were held in 2006 and 2009.
With a fleet of 51 yachts on the water- 50 sailing yachts and one motor yacht- the Perini Navi Group is the world leader in the design and construction of large sailing yachts. In 2007 the Group also began to build motor yachts with the brand name Picchiotti and the series name Vitruvius, thus re-launching the historic Picchiotti shipyard acquired in the early 1990’s. The Group is made up of the Perini Navi shipyard in Viareggio, founded in the 1980’s by Fabio Perini who invented and developed a revolutionary automatic sail control system. Another division is the Picchiotti shipyard in La Spezia where the Group constructs its motor yachts and concentrates most of its refitting work, and the Perini Istanbul shipyard in Yildiz, Turkey where its hulls and deck structures are produced. Perini Navi USA is a commercial division of the Group through which owners of Perini Navi Group yachts can arrange charters and find brokerage services for both new and previously owned Perini Navi Group yachts.
