LUM, a university from Bari, Italy, continued this year’s pattern of dominating a regatta, winning 8 out of 10 races on the Markermeer off Lelystad. This was the Italian busines school’s first entry in an MBA sailing league regatta.
The RSM regatta took place on 30- 31 August, with the “A” division competing in matched Maxfun 25 sportsboats.
Second place was claimed by Skolkovo, returning after their success at the Global MBA trophy in Athens, mopping up both the other first places and most of the second spots.
London Business School came in third, and last year’s champions, Insead/ Kellogg WHU were fourth, with a combined RSM and IE team fifth. Meanwhile sixth and seventh place were taken up by the RSM and Warwick crews who unfortunately damaged their boats on the first day and the prctice days respectively.
The B division was won by Warwick’s crew, who’d transferred from the A division when their boat ran aground on the practice day.
