Plain sailing for Team Basilica

Reseller's catamaran records Marseille victory

Team Basilica has cruised to victory in the Marseille leg of the Extreme 40 iShares Cup Series event on its 40ft catamaran. The boat, which is sponsored and supported by VAR Basilica, was helmed by Volvo Ocean Race winner Robert Greenhalgh with a crew of Peter Greenhalgh, James Grant and Justin Slattery – a group known in racing circles as the Brit Pack. The iShares cup event is held at four venues across Europe, with each regatta lasting three days. The next iShares Cup event will be at Cowes Week in the Isle of Wight next month.
