This year is the tenth edition of the Roberto Trombini Challenge Trophy at Marina di Ravenna, from 30th June to 4th July 2004.

The decennial edition of the Trombini Challenge Trophy promises to be a big success thanks to the high level of organization by Progetto Vela in collaboration with Circolo Velico Ravennate and International Yacht Club Marinara and thanks to the support of the many sponsors united in remembrance of Roberto Trombini, well known yachtsman from Ravenna.

The participation of 12 world level skippers and some big names from the America’s Cup, the possibility to follow the races from the grandstand on the pier at the port of Marina di Ravenna, the hospitality village and many other attractions make the 10th Roberto Trombini Challenge Trophy yet again another extraordinary occasion not to be missed by all match race enthusiasts.

The programme of Round Robins will be posted after the pairing at the skipper’s meeting. Each crew will challenge all the others twice in the Round Robins. The teams will be classified at the end of the series of ‘flights’. The first 8 will go forward to the quarter finals , the best 4 will go on to the semi-finals and so on until the finals.
