Clean Sweep for Emocean 1 PGYC Royal Cargo All Souls Regatta

PGYC’s Royal Cargo ASR2024 finished with two clear contenders for Overall 1st Place and the ASR2024 ‘Royal Cargo Cup’. Both Royal Cargo’s own ‘Emocean 1’ in Racing Class and Rick McGonegal’s ‘Neptunus’ in Performance Cruiser Class took 1st Place in class on each day of racing and were clear overall winners in class.

However, ‘Emocean 1’ lead the way across the finish line each day and despite a punishing handicap consistently sailed the faster race on corrected time to win Overall 1st Place and the 20th Anniversary ASR2024 ‘Royal Cargo Cup’… Congratulations to Michael Raeuber, skipper Philip Schlohsnagel and the Emocean 1’ crew on PGYC’s first 1, 2, 3 victory!!

‘Neptunus’ took Overall 2nd Place and the ‘CMI Offshore Trophy’ home while the award for 3rd place, the ‘Philippine Retirement Authority Cup’ overall is pending a protest.
