Entries have opened for this year's Superyacht Palma Cup (25-28 June 2025), which celebrates its 29th edition with a relocation to the Club de Mar-Mallorca. The new venue will bring yachts, owners and crew "immediately alongside" the vibrant SYC Race Village in Palma, which is the heart of the event's social and networking scene.
Last year saw the 24-metre Wally sailing yacht Rose successfully defend her title, becoming the first yacht to retain the overall winner position since Kokomo in 2002. The 2025 edition promises to be equally as subscribed (and competitive), with interest confirmed from the 38.8-metre Vijonara and the newly launched Linnea Aurora.

"The Gelliceaux owner, crew, and I are all looking forward to making the yacht's debut at the Superyacht Cup Palma this summer," said Clive Walker, Gelliceaux's captain. "It is a favourite in the superyachting world and a fantastic racing location, with an equally friendly social scene – which sounds like it will be enhanced this year, with all the boats being moored together at the new Club de Mar-Mallorca venue. We can’t wait!"
Other hopefuls include a number of Baltic 68 Café Racers, including Ganesa and Open Season.
