Chioggia is playing host this week to the beleaguered UIM Class One and V1 classes.

Class One, once the Crown Jewell of International Offshore Racing, has an entry of just 2 competitors in this year’s World Championship in Italy.

The V1 Class has double the entry of the catamaran class, 4 boats.

At least Jean-Marie Van Lancker, the Belgium National Authority President and head of UIM COMINOFF seemed thrilled that there were plenty of trophies to go around.
