Between the 4th and 6th of July, the coast of Cascais was once again the setting for another edition of the Mirpuri Foundation Sailing Trophy, which has already established itself as one of the most prestigious sailing competitions in Europe. Organised by the Mirpuri Foundation in partnership with the Clube Naval de Cascais and with the support of Cascais Municipal Council, the sixth edition of the event brought together hundreds of participants (sailors) and top-of-the-range boats in an initiative where high-level competition goes hand in hand with environmental awareness.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With more than 150 boats and sailors from 18 countries, the regatta reaffirmed its international dimension and its commitment to sustainability. The highlight of the closing ceremony was the presentation of the Perpetual Mirpuri Foundation Sailing Trophy to the fastest boats in real time in the cruising classes: Racing for the Planet, skippered by Bernardo Freitas (ORC), and Green Eyes, skippered by Carlos Mirpuri (NHC), saw their names engraved in the history of the trophy, alongside previous champions.
The podium for the 2025 edition featured established names and promising young sailors, with victories in classes such as TP52, SB20, Snipe, J70, Optimist and others. The diversity of the winners and the competitiveness of the races underline the spirit of the event: a celebration of sailing where all generations are invited on board.
The regatta also saw the crowning of the new TP52 world champions, with the victory of Quantum Racing, reinforcing the international prestige of the event.
In addition to the sporting aspect, the Mirpuri Foundation Sailing Trophy maintained its role as a benchmark in promoting sustainability. Through the Mirpuri Foundation Conservation Forum, held at the Cascais Marina, the event promoted debate on the role of tourism and aviation in environmental conservation, bringing together experts from around the world.
During the closing ceremony, the Mirpuri Foundation Ocean Award 2025 was presented to CORDAP \u2013 Coral Research & Development Accelerator Platform, for its innovative work in training specialists in coral reef restoration. The award, worth \u20ac10,000, will support the training of professionals from developing countries, such as Mozambique, contributing to the protection of endangered marine ecosystems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nature on board, with Horto do Campo Grande<\/strong>
An intervention designed to enhance the spaces and reinforce the environmental principles that guide the initiative. As in previous years, plants were present in key areas of the Marina and the event venue, designing green paths, creating rest areas and providing shade in areas of greater sun exposure.
In addition to their visual impact, the selected plant species played a functional role in the comfort of visitors and participants. They helped to regulate the ambient temperature and promote a more natural, pleasant and healthy atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
