For several days now, Bellamossa Città di Fiumicino has climbed the rankings in the ARC 2024, firmly holding second place in the Multihull Group B class. Today, however, there’s great celebration on board: 1,434 miles from the finish line, Bellamossa Città di Fiumicino has taken the lead in the real-time rankings.

Midway across the Atlantic on the route from Gran Canaria to St. Lucia, the C CAT 38, helmed by Massimo and Flavia Guardigli with Alessandro Guardigli and Cristiana Monina as crew, is leading the fleet. The smallest boat in the group is proving to be impressively fast in both calm seas and challenging conditions. For the record, it currently ranks 15th in the overall multihull standings and 48th overall. Clearly, excellent handling combined with a well-performing boat is bringing immense satisfaction
