This weekend will see over 50 Melges 24s gathering for Charleston Race Week, the penultimate event in the USMCA's Road To Corpus series which culminates in the 2011 Melges 24 World Championship, hosted by Corpus Christi Yacht Club, Texas.

We don't yet have a full report from the final day at the Melges 24 Italian Nationals & Volvo Cup Scarlino but with two more races completed today Alberto Bolzan and the team aboard Gianni Catalogna's Seatta have claimed overall victory.
Only one race was possible on day 3 of the 2011 Melges 24 Italian Open and Volvo Cup in Scarlino, Tuscany. Initially conditions afloat were good and the Club Nautico Scarlino Race Committee were able to run race seven of the series in a pleasant moderate breeze of around 10 knots.
This morning just before the teams left the dock we got everyone together for a group photo and you can see the results above. Below is a photo of the ladies of the fleet looking fabulous as always.
