The most popular catamarans-only sailing event on the starting line for the 13th year.

The Catamarans Cup international sailing race for cruising catamarans made a strong return this year to celebrate its 13th anniversary in style. Istion Yachting once again kicked off the popular race on Saturday 28 October 2023 from Athens with a record-breaking attendance, hosting roughly 280+ participants from 15 countries.

Combining sailing action, fun team-building side events, super-fun parties and the official award ceremonies, the Catamarans Cup is open to both experienced sailors and families or groups with no previous sailing experience.

Greece is the perfect destination for boundless sailing fun

This year the ever-enchanting and highly popular islands of the Argolic and Saronic Gulf were in the spotlight and the 4 legs offered action-packed sailing and fun. Even when the wind wasn't on our side, our sailing catamarans formed a giant circle flotilla big enough to mark our spot on the map and get the party going. A great celebration accompanied by numerous of water sports and side activities such as dinghy and SUP races made this year's Catamarans Cup a classic!
