“We are very proud to achieve our 5th Bacardi Miami Sailing Week edition and most importantly the 87th Bacardi Cup,” shared Sara Zanobini, Bacardi Sailing Week Event Director. “This year we would like to welcome the VX One Class and the continuation of the Star Sailors League program. We would also like to thank the Nautical Channel for renewing their support through their world wide programming.”
