2012 Contender Worlds


43 boats from around the world came to St. Pete Beach, Florida to race in the 2012 Contender World Championship regatta.  The SPYC crew put together a great event, both on and off the water, as the singlehanders sailed on beautiful Gulf of Mexico waters, and enjoyed the onshore amenities at their event headquarters at the Tradewinds Resort.

With the lead changing several times throughout the four days of racing, and several different competitors taking at least one bullet, competition was tight, but Italian Antonio Lambertini finished on top.  Check out this video summary of the event, including when they threw Lambertini in the pool at the end!
