The Reichel Pugh 37 Warthog, owned by Jim Vos and skipped by Jules Mitchell of Antigua, unsurprisingly took two bullets in CSA 1 on Friday and then captured another two on Saturday.

Warthog already won the Nanny Cay Cup, along with Airgasm, after participating in the legendary Round Tortola Race for the Nanny Cay Cup for the first time on April 1, 2025, and will now surely add another trophy to its cabinet.

The Swan 58 WaveWalker owned/skippered by Woody Cullen took two second places to finish second overall, while JAX, the custom Brooklin Boat Yard 43’er owned/skippered by Oivind Lorentzen took two third places to finish third overall.

In Performance Cruising A, a lead change today saw Kinship, a Baltic 52 skippered by Ryan Walsh, move into first and now just one point ahead of the Salona 45 Panacea. In third place is Lazy Dog, a Grand Soleil 52 owned/skippered by Sergio Sagramoso.

In Performance Cruising B, the IC24 Big Island skippered by Scott Stanton took two bullets to lead against the IC24 Bravissimo, skippered by Mike Feierabend.
