Richard Mille Classic Yacht Regatta, Falmouth. The Richard Mille Cup is a new yachting regatta that will bring together f beautifully restored yachts
THE RICHARD MILLE CUP HAS BEEN CREATED OUT OF A PASSION FOR THE BEAUTY OF GREAT DESIGN AND FINE WORKMANSHIP, FOR A LOVE OF COMPETITION AND CLASSIC YACHTS. IN THIS INAUGURAL EDITION, IT INTENDS TO ESTABLISH ITSELF AS A GLOBAL REFERENCE AND BECOME A HIGHLY ANTICIPATED EVENT IN THE YACHTING CALENDAR FOR SAILING ENTHUSIASTS WORLDWIDE. At the heart of this race is a desire to create a challenging sporting event which pushes competitors across a range of coastal and offshore races, With all of the vessels built or designed before 1940, the Richard Mille Cup will recreate the spectacle, sporting values and elegance of the regatta circuits of the pre-war years. A PRESTIGIOUS REGATTA WARRANTS AN EXCEPTIONAL TROPHY SO NONE OTHER THAN GARRARD, FORMER CROWN JEWELLER TO THE BRITISH ROYAL FAMILY, HAS DESIGNED AND CREATED THE UNIQUE AWARD FOR THIS UNRIVALLED SPORTING EVENT. From the very beginning of this new yacht racing series, Richard Mille wanted to create a trophy that would match the distinction of this event and its competitors. Standing at one metre high and crafted from sterling silver, the Richard Mille Cup is a breath-taking blend of contemporary design and classic workmanship. The silverware’s composition takes inspiration from the elegance of the yachts that will compete for it and shows detailed sails in the wind, hovering majestically above breaking waves.
