On Wednesday, June 14, 2017,
the Costa Blanca Yacht
Association (CBYA) held its
first TOMs Cruise and Raft-Up
Day.
Several members participated
in this event, sailing from the
Real Club Náutico de Calpe
(RCNC), to El Portet, Moraira,
on four RCNC-owned TOM racing
yachts. These 8.5 metre boats were
designed by Giovanni Ceccerelli,
and built at the Omega Ship Yard
in Moden, Italy, by Paolo Pizzo
and Matep Plazzi from “Team
Prada”.
RCNC owns six TOMs, which
are available to charter from their
Sailing Centre at Calpe.
The TOMs were also joined by
several privately-owned yachts
and power boats for the raft-
up. Once out of the harbour, the
TOMs effortlessly cut through the
water. The scenery was incredible,
and each crew member enjoyed
watching the other TOMs sailing
alongside them.
