Di Carloforte Cagliari, Quartu Sant’Elena, Sardinia - Italy July 22nd, August 2nd 2007 1 IODA WORLD SAILING CHAMPIONSHIP 2007 CAGLIARI, QUARTU SANT’ELENA, SARDINIA - ITALY SARDINIA CAGLIARI QUARTU SANT’ELENA Sardinia is the second largest island in the Mediterranean sea after Sicily. Sardinia’s is one of the most beautiful and unspoilt seas in the Mediterranean, The inland is equally unspoilt and is unexpectedly vast and fascinating. The low density of population caused, over the centuries, the preservation of large inhabited areas where you can easily find only shepherds who spend most of the year there. The island’s highest points are the mountain chain of Gennargentu, which is only one of the many mounts enliving the whole landscape. There are indeed two plains: the Campidano on the southern part of the Island and the Nurra on the Northern part. 2 IODA WORLD SAILING CHAMPIONSHIP 2007 CAGLIARI, QUARTU SANT’ELENA, SARDINIA - ITALY thousands of red pinnacles that emerge from the sea: an endless number of picturesque nooks that form a world apart in the Mediterranean basin. The Sardinian climate is a typically Mediterranean one with mild winters and warm summers. Summer from May to September, with many summery days in April and October, above all in the south. Therefore, the Sardinian climate looks as if it were made for the purpose of tourism, with very little risk of unexpected rains. The coastline of Sardinia offers a variety that cannot be compared with other Italian regions, with its outstretched majestic rams, wide white beaches, intimate coves, sheer cliffs where deep picturesque caves often appear and the 3 IODA WORLD SAILING CHAMPIONSHIP 2007 CAGLIARI, QUARTU SANT’ELENA, SARDINIA - ITALY CAGLIARI The administrative centre and most important town in Sardinia grew up around the old district of Castello, which stands on a hill. The sightseeing tour of Cagliari can start from the airy terraces of this district, once the fortifications of the Pisan and Aragonese overlords; from here wonderful views may be admired. To reach Castello one still has to pass the old medieval gates: it maintains the appearance of an old fortified town, with its ramparts, its narrow streets and the two medieval towers of San Pancrazio and the Elephant, named after the statue of an elephant, that is well visible outside. The fine Cathedral in Pisan Romanesque style with Gothic elements, the terrace of Saint Remy and the rampart of Santa Croce complete the charming atmosphere of the old district. In the same part of the town is the building housing the old University, founded in 1648, the Cittadella dei Musei, heart of cultural events in the town, the Siamese Museum, that house a rich collection of oriental weapons and objects and 4 IODA WORLD SAILING CHAMPIONSHIP 2007 CAGLIARI, QUARTU SANT’ELENA, SARDINIA - ITALY the National Archeological Museum where many exhibits can be seen, recalling the past civilizations on the island. Notable amongst these exhibits are the bronze figures representing different aspects of life during the Nuraghe period. There is also an interesting collection of finely engraved Carthaginian stones and gold and silver ornaments. The lower part of the city is out of the walls; here there are the churches of San Michele, one of the most important examples of Spanish-Gothic style in Sardinia, and of Sant’Anna, rebuilt after the bombardments during the Second World War. Behind this church there is the church of Sant’Efisio, to which the most important feast in the city is consecrated. It takes place in May and it celebrates the end of the plague in 1656, with a procession of people wearing the traditional costumes. The Saint’s statue is taken to Nora on a coach drawn by oxen. 5 IODA WORLD SAILING CHAMPIONSHIP 2007 CAGLIARI, QUARTU SANT’ELENA, SARDINIA - ITALY THE GULF OF CAGLIARI The Gulf of Cagliari offers the suitable background to host important and spectacular sailing events. Poetto is the beach of Cagliari and Quartu S.E., with its very fine sand. The southwest limit of the beach is the characteristic rocky formation known as the Devil’s Saddle under which there is Marina Piccola, a little harbour for tourist craft where you can find the Yacht Club Cagliari, the Lega Navale Italiana Cagliari and the Windsurfing Club. From Marina Piccola, logistic base of the Yacht Club Cagliari and LNI Cagliari to the Quartu Sant’Elena Sailing Center, in the eastern side of the coast, the Gulf will become a magnificent race area and the evolutions of the boats will of course arouse enthusiasm and admiration for these young champions. This background welcomed the first sailors in the 60’s. From then on the success of the sailing events organized in Cagliari and, at the same time, the achievement of the local athletes in national and international regattas, confirmed the qualities of the Golfo degli Angeli. With its morphologic and meteorological conditions the Golfo degli Angeli it’s the ideal race area with the almost constant presence of the wind and the mild climate. 6 IODA WORLD SAILING CHAMPIONSHIP 2007 CAGLIARI, QUARTU SANT’ELENA, SARDINIA - ITALY QUARTU SANT’ELENA Quartu Sant’Elena is of ancient Phoenician and Roman origins. The mild climate, the fertility of the land, the abundance of fish in the sea and the opportunities for wildfowling offered by the wetlands near Quartu has throughout history attracted many settlers. The name Quartu derives from the milestone along the Roman road connecting Cagliari in the south to Santa Teresa di Gallura in the north, which passed through the centre of the town. Owing to Quartu’s proximity to Cagliari in just a few years it has grown to become the third largest town in Sardinia. Despite its rapid growth Quartu Sant’Elena has succeeded in conserving traditions that go back a thousand years. Still today, in some of the oldest quarters of the town, bread is still made at home industry level and the patience and love with which sweets in a wide variety of shapes are decorated is still alive. Ancient rites are repeated year after year at the feasts of San Giovanni Battista, Santa Maria and the town’s patron saint, Sant’Elena. It is on these occasions that the splendid traditional costumes of the women are decorated to an incredible degree with objects in gold filigree produced by local goldsmiths who keep Quartu’s ancient tradition in this art alive. In Quartu one should visit the house-museum Sa Dom’e Farra, an ancient agricultural house where thousands of agricultural and household implements are preserved. Good paintings are kept in the parish church. Of notable interest are the twenty-six kilometres of coast, starting from the beach of Quartu that faces the Golfo degli Angeli and is a continuation of Poetto, the beach of Cagliari. Along the panoramic road to Villasimius a lovely place to stop is the cove Cala Regina, with its Spanish tower and the Mari Pintau beach. The inland Sette Fratelli Park (named from the seven peaks that rise above it) is characterised by springs waterfall, gorges and cliffs hidden in the forest and the Mediterranean scrub which offer exciting trips in search of the now rare red deer. The most interesting area for nature-lovers is the Molentargius wetland where over half of European birds species are represented. A large colony of flamingos has been nesting there since 1993. 7 IODA WORLD SAILING CHAMPIONSHIP 2007 CAGLIARI, QUARTU SANT’ELENA, SARDINIA - ITALY JULY IN THE GULF OF CAGLIARI The extension of the Anticyclone of Azores in the western Mediterranean sea, determines a levelled high pressures field in the South Sardinia.

It was founded in 1993 and applied to the Italian Sailing Federation in 1994. The managing staff has a remarkable experience in regattas organization; the activity of the section is possible also thanks to the precious cooperation of the Technical Nautical Institute of Carloforte that, in case of need, put its structures and equipments at the disposal of the Lega Navale Italiana. The LNI works for the youth sailing activity development in southwest Sardinia and some of its athletes achieved considerable results. The LNI Carloforte cooperates in the organization of the International Regatta “La route du jasmin” Tolone-Carloforte-Biserta. 12 IODA WORLD SAILING CHAMPIONSHIP 2007 CAGLIARI, QUARTU SANT’ELENA, SARDINIA - ITALY ASD YACHT CLUB CAGLIARI greater experience and better equipment, the Club applied to the F.I.V. (Italian Sailing Federation) and obtained permission to host their first national regattas. In the meantime the Club’s own crews were increasingly competing in regattas in mainland Italy and abroad. Finally in the 1980’s the Club was able to prove its organizing abilities when it hosted the Flying Dutchman World Championship. The hard work carried out by the managing staff was amply rewarded in 1981-82, when the Yacht The Yacht Club Cagliari is situated in the Marina Piccola port, very close to the beautiful Poetto beach and 5 km. far from the centre of the city. The Club was founded in 1964 by a group of boating and sailing enthusiasts with the intention of promoting competitive sailing, which until then had not been developed in any way in Cagliari. During the first few years, the Club concentrated mainly on regional sailing regattas for the Flying Junior, Flying Dutchman, Ponant and “S” classes. Later on, during the 70’s, the 420 and 470 classes were added along with sailboards. Having now 13 IODA WORLD SAILING CHAMPIONSHIP 2007 CAGLIARI, QUARTU SANT’ELENA, SARDINIA - ITALY Sardinian leading Club both in the regattas organization and in the number of competitions won by its crews through the years.

Club Cagliari gained the top place in the F.I.V. for the number and quality of competitions won by its crews.
