13 TO 16 JULY, 2016 - Puig Vela Clàssica Barcelona
PUIG VELA CLÀSSICA BARCELONA 13 TO 16 JULY, 2016 IX EDITION www.puigvelaclassicabarcelona.com I. PUIG AND ITS CONNECTION WITH SAILING Throughout its more than 100 years of history, Puig has maintained a natural connection with water sports, especially sailing. The fashion and fragrance company founded in Barcelona by the Puig family in 1914, identifies with the intrinsic values of this water sport; and this passion is shared by everyone – in the company and the family. In the beginning. As the sponsor of the Copa del Rey from 1984 through 2006, Puig worked hard to make this event one of the most exciting, elegant and prestigious sailing events on the international yachting circuit. In the same spirit, one of the family’s company yachts, Azur de Puig, participated in the world’s most exclusive regattas for more than 15 years. Based on this track record, the Copa del Rey success was extended with the creation of the Puig Vela Clàssica Barcelona regatta, which embodies the connection between Puig and sailing. “With the Puig Vela Clàssica Barcelona regatta, year after year, Puig confirms its dedication to the city and to the world of sailing. This competition is an ideal opportunity to demonstrate the international impact of Barcelona and our company through a totally unique event.” Marc Puig, Chairman and CEO, Puig This regatta was created in 2008 out of a desire to revive the nautical spirit and tradition that has been so much a part of Barcelona throughout its history. It is an event brimming with beauty, elegance and tradition, showcasing the great historic value of the boats that come to compete. IX EDITION | 13 TO 16 JULY, 2016 2 II.PUIG VELA CLÀSSICA BARCELONA – 9TH EDITION With every edition, the Puig Vela Clàssica Barcelona has become recognized as one of the main regattas on the international classic sailing calendar. The exclusive atmosphere of the event and the prestige of the competitors it attracts are only two of the reasons why year after year more yacht owners and sailing connoisseurs are becoming unconditional fans of this event. More than fifty classic and vintage boats from Spain and countries such as England, France, the United States, Germany, the Netherlands and Italy will provide a vast array of nautical splendor rarely seen in major cities such as Barcelona. 9th Edition. This year, from July 13 to 16, the Barcelona Royal Yacht Club will host an event that is difficult to evaluate in terms of the historical legacy relating to the boats involved. One-of-a-kind boats more than a hundred years old, and more recent ones adapted to the pureness and traditions of artisan shipyards, will gather together. Some of the ships have interesting stories to tell. Like the Moonbeam IV, which had the privilege of hosting Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier of Monaco during their honeymoon in 1956; or the Manitou, built in 1937 and converted into the presidential yacht for US President John F. Kennedy. Another legendary vessel habitually seen in Barcelona waters is the Marigold, a classic cutter launched in 1982 and magnificently restored, which was one of Charles Nicholson’s first designs. Based on the International Mediterranean Committee (CIM) Regulations, the regatta is divided into three categories according to the year in which they were built: Vintage Boats, Classic Boats, and Big Boats. “There is nothing more seductive and enslaving than life at sea.” “The days during which the Puig regatta is held each year occupy a very important part of our crews’ annual agenda. Vibrant, thrilling and unique...in the most appropriate setting imaginable, this city with its unbeatable atmosphere and long nautical background. It’s a must-attend event for all lovers of the nautical world.” Joseph Conrad, writer Antonio Bellés, captain of the Islander At the helm of these ships will be a select group of sailors who, in addition to competing with the same discipline and determination as they would for any other nautical sport, will adopt the style and elegance that can only be seen in this unique event, steeped in history, competitiveness and excellence. IX EDITION | 13 TO 16 JULY, 2016 3 III. A COMPANY WITH A SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP WITH BARCELONA The history of Puig is closely linked to the history of Barcelona. From the company’s very beginnings to the present day, Puig and Barcelona have had a shared history and destiny. They have grown together, each one an inseparable part of the other’s identity for a century. It is therefore not at all surprising that the firm has maintained its headquarters even when it became a major international corporation. Furthermore, nine years ago, Puig put Barcelona back on the coveted list of major Mediterranean cities that host prestigious international sailing competitions. A bit of history. The first sailing competition organized in Barcelona was held in 1883, but it was not until 1886 that the city began to regularly host regattas involving small racing boats. In 1929, the same year as the Barcelona International Exhibition, the city hosted the World Mediterranean Cruise, marking the start of the city’s career as a center for numerous boat races. It was also during the first third of the 20th century that some of the boats participating in the Puig Vela Clàssica Barcelona Regatta were launched. The ninth edition of the Puig Vela Clàssica Barcelona offers the general public a rare opportunity during any given year or place in the world to see historically and culturally significant boats in action, an experience usually reserved for a privileged few. Once again, Puig will offer the world a totally unique boat show that will provide an opportunity to demonstrate its passion for sailing and its high esteem for the Catalonian capital. No other city in the world hosts a regatta of classic boats of this caliber. Only Antigua, Antibes, Newport Rhode Island, the Isle of Wight and Cannes hold regattas of this kind. During this period, the city becomes the global epicenter for this type of sports event. The dates for this event, July 13 to 16, were identified as the most appropriate because the vast majority of the world’s classic sailing ships are already enrolled in premier nautical circuits along the Mediterranean coast. “People who do not know that a sailboat is a living creature will never understand anything about boats and the sea.” Bernard Moitessier, writer IX EDITION | 13 TO 16 JULY, 2016 4 IV. THE REAL CLUB NÁUTICO DE BARCELONA With more than 140 years of history, the Real Club Náutico de Barcelona (RCNB) is a major reference in the world of Mediterranean sailing. The club is a founding member of the International Mediterranean Committee (CIM), the Spanish Yacht Club Association (AECN) and Barcelona Sports and Culture and is affiliated with such organizations as the Royal Spanish Sailing Federation (RFEV), the Catalan Sailing Federation (FCV), the Real Asociación Nacional de Cruceros (RANC), the Catalan Jetski Federation (FCM) and the Asociación de Naveganst Solitaris. The RNCB has sister yacht clubs in various European countries and a range of reciprocal membership agreements with clubs and organizations such as the Yacht Club de Monaco, the Yacht Club Italiano, the Yacht Club de France and the Circolo del Remo e della Vela italiano. “It is one of the most important naval events at the international level; a unique opportunity for the entire nautical family to enjoy their ships in the exceptional environment of Barcelona’s Mediterranean bay.” Félix Escalas, President of the Real Club Náutico de Barcelona “[...] And he realized that no one is ever alone at sea.” Ernest Hemingway, writer The RCNB has won several prizes honoring its career as a sports organization. In 1999, it received a Royal Order of Merit gold plaque from the Spanish government, and in 2003 it was awarded a gold Medal for Sporting Merit from the Barcelona City Council. It received the Royal Spanish Sailing Federation’s Golden Anchor Award in 1998, was named the best Best Catalan sporting body by Mundo Deportivo in 1997, and has been awarded a Golden Sail by the Catalan Sailing Federation on numerous occasions. IX EDITION | 13 TO 16 JULY, 2016 5 V. SPORTS ORGANIZATIONS Royal National Cruising Association International Mediterranean Committee Spain’s Royal National Cruising Association was established in 1974 and represents the owners of cruising boats with regard to the technical aspects of time allowances for regattas. The scope of its authority includes the entire territory of Spain. It is the only association of its kind in Spain and, for many years, it was the keeper and representative in Spain of the IOR and then the IMS international measurement rules. The Comité Internacional del Mediterráneo (CIM) was founded in 1926 by three legendary yacht clubs: the Yacht Club de France, the Yacht Club Italiano and the Real Club Náutico de Barcelona. www.ranc.es The CIM currently includes classic yacht owners’ associations – AIVE (Italy), AFYT (France), RANC (Spain) and AMBC (Monaco) – and various national sailing federations. Together they constitute the executive and technical committees. The CIM’s priority is to implement the means to uphold the maritime heritage and thus ensure the continuation of both Classic and Vintage yacht racing. http://www.cim-classicyachts.org/ Royal Spanish Sailing Federation Its members are sports federations from the autonomous regions, sports clubs, sportsmen and women, technicians, judges and other authorities involved in promoting or practice sailing sports. www.rfev.es IX EDITION | 13 TO 16 JULY, 2016 6 VI. A LIVELY, EXCEPTIONAL VILLAGE: A WORLD CLASS SPORTING, CULTURAL, AND SOCIAL EVENT July 13 to 16, all the social life revolves around the Village, a leisure spot in the heart of the Real Club Náutico de Barcelona. There will be mid-morning pre-race meetings, seafood lunches, post-regatta refreshments, and cocktail receptions as the sun slips below the horizon every afternoon. “When socializing, everyone enjoys each other’s company.” Charles Baudelaire, poet The Village is an exceptional place to meet and relax just a few strides from the sea where the regatta’s opening ceremony, awards ceremonies and closing festivities will all be held. This is where the ships’ crews and owners – with local authorities and representatives from national and international society – enjoy a laid-back atmosphere. Music by The Tutsies will bring these few days of sports and leisure to an end. Major sponsors such as Nespresso, Coca-Cola, Estrella Damm, Gramona or ISDIN will gather this year in the Village each day during the regatta to mingle with the participants. “The Village is the perfect place to relax and get to know the crew members from other boats at the end of each day during the regatta. We live and breathe sailing here; we don’t feel like rivals, but more like colleagues who share the same passion for sailing and are together enjoying the view of the sea in the heat of such an exhilarating city as Barcelona.” Andrés de León, owner of the Yanira “We are very proud to be able to participate each and every year in this special regatta. This large fleet of majestic ships, excellent organization and a grand finale party... creates a rather unique bond.” Luis Martínez Doreste, sailor and singer for The Tutsies IX EDITION | 13 TO 16 JULY, 2016 7 VII.THE LEGENDS THAT ADD SPARKLE TO THE REGATTA Manitou Class: Vintage; year built: 1937; designer: Olin Stephens; owner: Manitou 1936 INC; club: Newport Yacht Club Manitou was commissioned in 1936 by James Lowe, designed by Olin Stephens and built by Davis & Sons in 1937. She was originally designed to sail on the Great Lakes and won the Chicago Mackinac Race in 1938, 1940 and 1941. In 1952 she was donated to the United States Coast Guard Academy where she was used as a training vessel to teach the cadets seamanship and working together as a crew. It was then that the vessel came to the attention of John F. Kennedy, who chose her for Presidential use. The US President spent so much time on board Manitou that she earned the nickname “The Floating White House”. Afterwards the vessel passed into private ownership and was kept on the East coast for the past 40 years, where until recently she was the key exhibit of the National Sailing Hall of Fame in Annapolis. Her current owners have put her through an extensive refit and upgrade in preparation for competitive racing. Moonbeam IV Class: Vintage; rig: Gaff Cutter; sail number: 8; designer: William Fife; year built: 1920; builder: Fife & Sons; owner: Clyde Marine; club: YC Monaco Moonbeam IV is one of the few classic gaff cutters still sailing today. Designed by the renowned William Fife III and built at the Fife & Sons yard in Scotland, she was commissioned by the lawyer Charles Plumptre Johnson. Construction started in 1914 but because of World War I she was not launched until 1929. Moonbeam IV is considered one of the most beautiful yachts in the world, not only externally but also for her luxurious details, including polished Palo Santo hardwood flooring/paneling, Persian rugs, antique lamps and leather upholstery. In 1926 she was sold to Henry Sutton. The new owner raced her for a decade and after World War II she competed in the Mediterranean. In 1950, Prince Rainier of IX EDITION | 13 TO 16 JULY, 2016 Monaco bought the vessel and named her Deo Juvante, the motto of the Grimaldi family. The Prince and his bride Grace Kelly spent their honeymoon on board. In 1960 the yacht was sold to Hannibal Scott, who used her for charters in the Mediterranean, but she gradually deteriorated. In 1995, her current owners found her in Greece and decided to restore her. In the winter of 2005 she was taken to Tunisia for refit and has been competing in the Mediterranean since 2006. She is currently based on the French Riviera and is one of the few survivors of the golden age of sailing. Mariette Class: Vintage; rig: Twin-masted Schooner; sail number: 8; designer: N. G. Herreshoff; year built: 1915; builder: Herreshoff; owner: Clyde Marine; club: Royal Cornwall YC Mariette is one of the last large schooners designed by N. G. Herreshoff and was built in 1915 by a Boston businessman. Among her many adventures, she was requisitioned by the US Coast Guards during World War II to serve on the West coast. After the War, she was converted to a staysail schooner and transported to the Caribbean where she was probably one of the first classic yachts to be chartered. In the 1970s she was acquired by a Swiss banking syndicate and crossed the Atlantic to make her first appearance in the Mediterranean. She underwent refits in 1980, 1995 and 2010. In 1995, she was given her original gaff topsail rig, restoring the yacht to her former glory. Mariette competes in classic regattas worldwide. She recently established her base in Falmouth for winter lay-up ahead of the hectic Mediterranean regatta season. 8 Kelpie Islander Class: Vintage; rig: Gaff Cutter; sail number: 2; designer: Alfred Mylne; year launched: 1903; builder: JG Fay & Co.; owner: Pelham Olive; club: RAF Class: Vintage; rig: Ketch Marconi; year built: 1937; builder: G.L. Watson & Company (Scotland); owner: R. Albiñana; club: RCN Barcelona Built by JG Fay & Co of Southampton in 1903, Kelpie was designed by Alfred Mylne as a Solent 38-foot class to race with the 42-foot Linear Raters. The story goes that the owners who commissioned the new class decided to do so with a dinner honoring the passing of Queen Victoria. In 1922, Kelpie was involved in Erskine Childers plot to run guns into Ireland to use against the Irish Free State government. Kelpie survived World War II with her keel intact. After a string of South Coast owners she returned to the Dartmouth Yard of Nash & Holden where she benefited from 15 years of careful renewal and thorough maintenance ensuring her survival and current condition. Kelpie is one of the most impressive yachts of her era still sailing. In full sail she is an impressive sight and is fast and manageable. Islander was built from Burmese teak left to dry naturally in the open air for eight years before building started. Her owner, Tom Blackwell, a former captain of the merchant navy, was a solitary character with few friends, who rarely spoke of his past or family and never invited anyone aboard. With Blackwell at the helm, Islander achieved a solo circumnavigation record. Blackwell would circumnavigate the globe twice and after three years return to Durban (South Africa) to repair, paint and prepare the boat for the next voyage. On his third attempt, Blackwell was obliged to dock at Durban due to her ill health. He had to sell Islander because he did not want his family to inherit her and the sale was negotiated on deck for $35,000. Her new owner, the Durban lawyer John P. Mathews, took Islander to New England for an extensive refit. In 1981, Luís Garí found her covered in dust and half abandoned in the Carabela boatyard in the Poblenou district of Barcelona. In January 1989, Islander was bought by her current owner and is now moored at the RCN Barcelona. Eilean Class: Vintage; sail number: 449; designer: William Fife III; year launched:1936; club: Yacht Club Savoia Eilean was built in 1936 at the Fife boatyard in Fairlie, to a design by the octogenarian William Fife III. The boat’s first owners were the brothers James V. and Robert W. Fulton of Greenock, who were members of the Royal Gourock Yacht Club in the 1970s. Eilean was acquired by John Shearer, an architect who transformed her into one of the most popular charter yachts in the Caribbean, berthed at English Harbor in Antigua. John Shearer made 14 Atlantic crossings with Eilean between the Caribbean and Europe, many of them single-handed. Eilean began a new life in 2006 when her current owner, Angelo Bonati, spotted her in English Harbor in Antigua and bought her. IX EDITION | 13 TO 16 JULY, 2016 Hallowe’en Class: Vintage; rig: Cutter Marconi; sail number: 2; designer: William Fife & Son (Fairlie, Scotland); year launched: 1926; club: Royal Irish YC Hallowe’en is a Marconi rig cutter built to the 15-meter rule, which in the year she was launched won the Fastnet race, setting a record which stands to this day for the original course. She raced in the Mediterranean and later, with a new Norwegian owner, the Atlantic, under the name Magda XII. Prince Olaf, the future King of Norway, was a regular guest on Hallowe’en. During the 1940s and 50s, under the name Cotton Blossom IV, she raced in America, winning numerous regattas. In the 1980s, she was donated to the Classic Boat Museum in Newport, Rhode Island where, thanks to the generosity of a private individual, she underwent a refit. Hallowe’en started life as a Marconi rig, was subsequently converted to a gaff rig, and in 1993, when undergoing a 9 refit in Barcelona was restored to her original Marconi rig configuration. In 1999 she was sold to a Dutch owner. Her designer William Fife III described her as “the perfect gentleman’s yacht... a jewel”. Malabar X Class: Vintage; rig: Gaff-rigged Schooner; sail number: 10; designer: John G. Alden; year launched: 1930; club: RCN Barcelona Malabar X, the tenth in a series of schooners designed by the renowned American naval architect John Gale Alden for his personal use, is one of the most important vessels in the history of yacht design. She was the last of Alden’s personal schooners and the most successful of the boats he designed for himself, marking the peak of the naval architect’s career. In 1930, Malabar X won the Bermuda Race in her class, and in 1932 won it again with her designer at the helm. In 1991 she fell victim to Hurricane Bob, when she was dashed against the mooring, causing serious damage. Shortly after she was purchased for $35,000, according to Lloyd’s Register, and was totally rebuilt in close cooperation with Alden Design Corporation, and the original parts of the boat are easily recognizable. Malabar X is now registered in Barcelona and cruises gracefully around the Mediterranean flying the Spanish flag. IX EDITION | 13 TO 16 JULY, 2016 Vanity V Sail number: K5; designer: W. & R. B. Fife; year launched: 1936; builder: W. Fife & Sons Vanity V was designed in 1936 by the naval architect William Fife III when he was 79 years old. Her first owner was J. R. Payne, one of the best helmsmen of his day who was also an accomplished violinist. Payne disliked the interior design because it had several fully fitted cabins for cruising, whereas he wanted a yacht to compete in 12-meter races. From 1947 to 1960 she belonged to Sir Hartley Shawcross, the Attorney General for England and Wales, who berthed her at Falmouth in Cornwall and installed a new engine. In 1961, she was sold to Captain Michael P.R. Boyle. From 1965 to 1996 she was kept in France with a new name, La Pinta and took part in regattas like La Nioulargue, now known as Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez. Robert Daral and JeanPaul Guillet bought the vessel in 1997 and gave her back her original name. The yacht was totally rebuilt closer to the original design. She has changed hands several times since 2001. Her latest achievement was winning the 2007 America’s Cup in the 12-meter class. 10 APPENDIX I: THE CLASSICS OF THE CLASSICS by Leonardo García de Vincentiis When the classic ships get together for the Puig Vela Clàssica Barcelona regatta, there’s not the slightest doubt that what dominates the stage is the visual feast, the breathtaking panorama this fleet offers when moored at the docks of the Real Club Náutico de Barcelona, parading in front of the public at the Dársena de la Fusta, or with all sails unfurled in a crazy regatta display for the Barcelona beachcombers. Onlookers’ eyes revel in the rich colors of the varnished wood, shining brass or chrome... and the keenest admire the gear that has fallen by the wayside, unused, the absence of reels, or electric winches when there are no winches “at all”. There are boats which are still active today yet were christened before any planes, cars or trucks even existed. They appeared when high society people of the times rode around in horse-drawn carriages and were just getting acquainted with electricity... Boats that have sailed throughout history and we have known ever since are still successfully racing and thrilling their sailors, whereas their contemporaries in terms of fishing, cargo and war ships are just memories now, or lie silent in museums, in the best cases... That’s what makes these ships different from all the others, even for the spectators who admire them from the shore. Today, executing traditional maneuvers as simple as folding a genoa at the bow of a boat while sailing seem to be things of the past. Let alone hoisting a gaff sail! And participation in these meetings is constantly increasing, along with many owners’ enthusiasm to go all out and make their boats, whether big or small, shine on their own. Classic boats have a heritage value that their owners have only just recently started to discover. The value of preserving the history of a bygone era which somehow comes to life before our very eyes thanks to their presence. So what makes classic yachts so appealing? By definition they are antiques. One could compare them to classic cars, which also have their fans and competitions. But at the same time, there’s a big difference between antique cars and boats: No one today would think of using a fifty-year-old car on a daily basis. Much less ones from the 1920s and 1930s… yet, the boats from this era and even earlier, sail on a daily basis, and not just for shows and regattas, but also for their owners’ pleasure cruises off to distant islands, just like any modern boat. IX EDITION | 13 TO 16 JULY, 2016 Leonardo García de Vincentiis, expert in classic yachts, spokesman for the Asociación Española de Barcos de Época y Classics (AEBEC) and of the Real Asociación Nacional de Cruceros (RANC) 11 ELEMENTS TO CONSIDER IN ASSESSING A CLASSIC BOAT AND ITS RESTORATION: 1. Almost all period ships belong to the “bronze era”, meaning that the deck fittings are of this material, naturally or, more recently, plated. From the mid-1950s, stainless steel started to take over. 2. Similarly, in terms of the knots the trend is toward ultra modern materials such as mylar or kevlar, that don’t fit at all with rigs which are eminently elastic. 3. Few boats still use cotton sails, but the feel and “smell” offer a very unique experience that distinguishes the classics. 4. On the deck of an old boat, the central and lateral floor boards always have angular joints as opposed to rounded ones. Rounding corners is a modern custom. 5. Generally, in the biggest and oldest period ships (pre1930s), the boons are hung from the top timbers. Whereas in more modern ships, the boon is a smooth fender. IX EDITION | 13 TO 16 JULY, 2016 12 APPENDIX II: CLASSIFICATIONS VINTAGE YACHTS These are boats built from wood or metal in accordance with original plans and launched before 31 December 1949. They are divided into three classes by type of sails and rigging: • CLASS A: vintage boats with gaff-rigged sails also known as gaffs. • CLASS B: vintage boats with Marconi (Bermudan) sails and ketch, yawl, or schooner rigging. • CLASS C: vintage boats with Marconi sails and sloop or cutter rigging. CLASSIC YACHTS These are boats made from wood or metal in accordance with original plans and launched before 31 December 1975. Boats built as part of a series will not be accepted in this class. They are divided into two classes by type of sails and rigging: • CLASS B: Classic boats with Marconi (Bermudan) sails and ketch, yawl, or schooner rigging. • CLASS C: Classic boats with Marconi sails and sloop or cutter rigging. BIG BOATS These are vintage or classic boats measuring 25 meters or more. A minimum of three boats must enter to form a group. IX EDITION | 13 TO 16 JULY, 2016 TYPES OF VESSELS Sloop: a single-masted vessel normally rigged fore and aft with mainsail and jib. This boat, used by navies, was a small, fast sailing boat that carried military orders from one boat to another. Cutter: a vessel with a single mast located some one-thirds of the way from the transom with a sail plan of mainsail and two jibs. Yawl: A double-masted vessel with either Bermuda or gaff-rigged sails. The main mast is placed in the middle of the vessel and the mizzenmast, which was very small, at the stern, behind the rudder wheel. Ketch: A double-masted vessel with either Bermuda/Marconi (triangular) or gaff-rigged (trapezoidal) sails. The main mast is placed on the back third of the boat and the mizzenmast is located at the stern, behind the ship’s wheel. Goleta or Schooner: a sailing boat with two or more masts rigged with different types of sails. The mainmast is located at the stern, behind the ship’s wheel and it is bigger than the foremast, positioned at the bow, in the front third of the ship. The two masts may also be the same height, but the one in the stern always takes the mainsail and the one in the bow, the foresail. The sails originally hoisted on this type of ship were gaff-rigged, also known as Gaff sails, although many crews preferred Bermuda rig sails. 13 TYPES OF SAILS AND THEIR SHAPES: Gaff-rigged or gaff: (generally the mainsail). trapezoidal sail Bermuda or Marconi: triangular sail. Mizzen: “driver” sail or stern mast on a yawl or ketch. Jib: generic name for all cutter and triangular sails that are joined together or in a stay on the foremast, which is to say that they extend from the head of the foremast to the jib boom or bowsprit.
