Hosted once again by the prestigious Yacht Club Costa Smeralda, the respected UK-based design studio Dubois Yachts is pleased to announce that the 2013 Dubois Cup will be held in Porto Cervo, Sardinia, Italy, running from 1st to  the 3rd of June 2013.

The inaugural Dubois Cup took place in Palma in 2007 following a conversation between Ed Dubois and a client who suggested the idea of a regatta solely for Dubois yachts. As with many things, the idea grew and the Dubois Cup was established – an opportunity for owners to enjoy their boats, to put them through their paces and to meet other Dubois owners and friends.

The second Dubois Cup took place in 2009 at the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda in Sardinia and the third Cup took place earlier this year, from 4th – 6th June, again held at and organised in conjunction with the YCCS.

This invitation-only event is the only Superyacht regatta to combine racing and a full social programme with a commitment to raising money for charity.

The 3rd Dubois Cup has been hailed as the best yet, with 14 Dubois designs in attendance and 8 of the fleet taking part in the racing.  Despite a few weather problems the event ran very successfully.

Still retaining the wonderful ethos and atmosphere that is at the heart of the Dubois brand, Dubois Yachts hopes to see the Cups continue to grow year on year.
