More than grand prix racing. 🌊💙

Throughout the 2026 season, the 52 SUPER SERIES family united across Lanzarote, Sardinia, and Valencia to give back to the communities that host us. From beach cleanups and youth workshops to surplus food donations supporting incredible organizations like Banco de Alimentos in Valencia and Calor y Café in Lanzarote, our commitment extends far beyond the racecourse.

A heartfelt thank you to our owners, teams, organizers, local NGOs, and the sailing schools who bring this mission to life.

Together, we protect our playground and support our communities. 🌍🤝

We are proud to announce professional sailor and artist Romolo Ranieri as our latest Kick Out Plastic ambassador. ⛵️🎨

Romolo has brought to life our new virtual ambassador, Tank, a cartoon fish dedicated to amplifying our message of sustainability. Combining his deep connection to the ocean as a sailor with his creative talent, Romolo has given us a unique way to engage communities in the fight against plastic pollution.

We are excited to collaborate with Romolo and use this creative new voice, both on and off the water, for good. 🌎✨

The balance of high-performance racing: MORE efficiency, LESS footprint. ⏱️🍃

Running a world-class championship in a pristine location like Porto Cervo demands next-level sustainability. Here is how we dialed it in this week:

🚰 Water Filtration: Cutting down 14,564 plastic bottles at the source with our high-tech eSpring filling stations.
🤖 Robotic Marks: Controlled on the water by @ba.pau , these GPS-guided marks mean fewer support chase boats, protecting the seabed from anchors and reducing overall event fuel.
☀️ Solar Powered: The Palm Beach 65 VIP Yacht utilizing top-tier solar arrays, with Captain David keeping the vessel completely off-grid with no onshore electricity needed.

Real innovation on the water, real protection for our oceans. 🌊⚓

🌍 At the 52 SUPER SERIES, performance goes hand in hand with responsibility.

This season we cut down single-use plastics thanks to the water filtration system by eSpring, carried out beach and underwater cleanups, and supported local communities with daily food pickups for those in need. We also ran educational programs with young sailors to inspire the next generation, and once again earned the Platinum Level Clean Regattas Certification.

Racing at the top, while protecting what we love most… our oceans! 🌊💙

We fight to stay sustainable. We work to raise awareness, especially among the next generation!
Because our racecourse is our playground, and we need to protect what we love.
