🏆 LINE HONOURS FOR BLACK JACK 100!

Congratulations to Black Jack 100 who took line honours in the 21st Palermo - Montecarlo, crossing the finish in Monte Carlo yesterday in 47h 26m 44s.

It marks a third consecutive line honours victory in the race for the 100ft supermaxi, following wins in 2024 and 2025.

Variable conditions made for a challenging race, with Black Jack even experiencing a temporary electronics blackout after lightning struck just metres from the yacht shortly before the finish.

Congratulations to the Black Jack 100 crew!👏

T-4 days until the start of the 2026 Palermo - Montecarlo 🙌

BLACK JACK 100 È TORNATO. ⏱️

E adesso la domanda è una sola: sarà ancora record?

Per tre anni consecutivi ha conquistato la Line Honours della Palermo–Montecarlo.
L’anno scorso ha infranto il suo stesso record, chiudendo la sfida in 38 ore, 53 minuti e 16 secondi.

Il 18 agosto torna a caccia del quarto sigillo.
E, forse, di un altro record. 🌊⚡️

. Si parte il 18 agosto.

BLACK JACK 100 IS BACK. ⏱️

And now there’s only one question: will it set another record?

For three consecutive years, it has taken Line Honours in the Palermo–Montecarlo.
Last year, it broke its own record, completing the challenge in 38 hours, 53 minutes and 16 seconds.

On August 18, it’s back hunting for a fourth consecutive Line Honours.
And maybe… another record. 🌊⚡️

Palermo–Montecarlo 2026. The race starts August 18.
