HOSTED BY THE ICONIC YACHT CLUB DE MONACO, THE EVENT PROVIDES A PLATFORM AND COMPETITION TO HELP BUILD A RESPONSIBLE FUTURE FOR THE PLANET, THE OCEANS AND FUTURE GENERATIONS.

Slalom and Championship

The team from The Netherland’s left its mark on Saturday, as Sunflare Solar came first in the slalom race for the solar class. Four separate teams from The Netherlands made up the top ten, including all of the top three places.

In the energy class, it was Oceanos NTUA of Greece that claimed top spot with a time of 00:29,14, only fractionally quicker than the Italian UniBoAT team.

In the final event of the Energy Boat Challenge, it came as no great surprise as The Netherlands dominated the Championship Race in the solar class. Once again, it was Sunflare Solarteam that secured the title, finishing ahead of the other Dutch teams that made up the next three places.

It was almost a carbon copy of the slalom race in the final of the Championship Race for the energy class. In a best-of-three format, the Oceanos NTUA team of Greece went head to head with Italy’s UniBoAT, and after winning one leg each, it was Oceanos that held its nerve to pick up the most prestigious trophy of the whole event.
