Sail Racing PalmaVela, organised by the Real Club Nautico de Palma, is the first, big multi-class regatta of the Mediterranean season and, as such, is a highly competitive affair carrying great kudos. Some 134 entries and over 1,500 crew from 26 nations contested the 2018 event. For the #swanonedesign contingent of 17 yachts, the 15th edition of this spring tradition formed the second event in The Nations Trophy Mediterranean League 2018.
 
The time of year may be associated with new life, but it was some perennial performers that stamped their mark on the event. European Champions, Earlybird, secured ClubSwan 50 and Christian Plump's Swan 45 Elena Nova won here for the sixth time. Massimo de Campo's ClubSwan 42 Selene Alifax bucked the trend, more in keeping with the season, by winning a first major #swanonedesign contest. In the battle for top nation, Germany were the clear winners with Earlybird and Elena Nova proving a formidable combination.
 
The next event for #swanonedesign classes competing for The Nations Trophy Mediterranean League is the three-day inshore series at the Rolex Giraglia in Saint-Tropez, from 9 to 12 June.
