In 2019 the Cup is awarded to Ojala II.
Ojala II K 4702 designed by Sparkman & Stephens in 1973 and built by Royal Huisman in aluminium, she is a One Ton Cup design which is very actively raced by her owners .
AIVE writes the following explanation:
"The Cup is assigned according to the 'Notice of Race', that was meant to favour excellence in results more than consistency in participation to all regattas.
As far as I remember, you should have been receiving (and approving) the Notice of Race (in english) somewhere in April-May 2018 directly from AIVE’s secretariat.
The ranking system, based on minimal points, is the sum of three best placement obtained by each single S&S yacht during the whole season in Italy, with a minimum of three events to be considered for qualifying. In order to avoid discrepancy between events in which there were two, three or four races, from each event the two best results obtained in each single race where selected. E.g.: Ojalà II at Argentario won two races, was second in one and fourth in another. For the purpose of the Cup the two wins were selected, i.e. 2 points.
Boats participating in less than three events where not eligible for ranking."
The winner is Ojalà II with 6 first places in the best three events, i.e. 6 points.
