70 yachts are ready to race 167 miles from Buenos Aires to Punta del Este, Uruguay in the Circuito Atlantico Sur Rolex Cup 2007 on January 14, 2007. Race organizers include the Yacht Club Argentino, Yacht Club Olivos, Yacht Club Punta del Este and the Yacht Club Uruguayo.
The Frers designed Fortuna III from the Armada Argentina, skipped by Alberto von Wernich is the race favorite. Current forecasts predict an upwind battle that will favor the larger yachts in the race and delayed the start of the race this morning. This is another event in the World of Rolex Yacht Racing.
