Marina Militare Nastro Rosa Tour made an exciting and historic stop in Portoroz, marking its first and only destination outside of Italy. The journey to Portoroz was not without challenges, as adverse weather conditions caused a one-day delay in the arrival of the fleet. However, the delay did not dampen the spirits of the sailors and enthusiasts, who eagerly await the arrival of the Figaro Fleet.

During the waiting period, participants took the opportunity to engage in intensive WASZP and Wingfoil training sessions. These training sessions allowed the athletes to fine-tune their skills, sharpen their techniques, and familiarize themselves with the local waters, all in preparation for the upcoming races.

Amid the training activities, the organizers also treated the participants and spectators to a concert, held as the main night event. The enchanting melodies filled the air, creating a captivating ambiance, and providing a perfect opportunity for everyone to come together and celebrate their shared passion for sailing and the sea.

Portoroz proved to be a warm and welcoming host, embracing the spirit of the Marina Militare Nastro Rosa Tour and adding its unique charm to this unforgettable experience. As the participants and spectators immersed themselves in the rich culture and beauty of Portoroz, they also forged lasting memories.

After a revitalizing stop in Slovenia, the Marina Militare Nastro Rosa Tour will gear up to embark on the next phase of its thrilling journey. With renewed enthusiasm and eager anticipation, the tour will soon return to the captivating shores of Italy, making its way to the magnificent city of Venice for the grand finale of this year's highly anticipated event.
