Putting Nasugbu, Batangas on the map as one of the most sought-after sailing meccas in the country and even in Asia, Landco Pacific Corporation continued to co-present the prestigious 21st Club Punta Fuego Regatta.
Reserved for those with discerning taste, a drive to set their sails high for luxury and the will to win, yet like true sportsmen share camaraderie with those who share the same passion for sailing, the two-day Club Punta Fuego Regatta is one of the country’s longest-running yachting competitions and a top sports tourism event in Southern Luzon.
The event is organized by the Philippine Inter-Island Sailing Foundation (PHINSAF) and Club Punta Fuego. Landco Pacific’s pioneering and premier seaside developments along the coastline of Nasugbu, Batangas – Terrazas de Punta Fuego and Peninsula de Punta Fuego – were the exclusive and upscale enclaves that served as silent witnesses to the thrilling competitive sailing event.
Atrevidos, helmed by Eduardo Legarda of the Punta Fuego Yacht Club, pulled a major surprise to edge out the perennial winners and topped the Ocean Multihull Class in the final standing. Atrevidos clinched the overall first place at the 21st Club Punta Fuego Regatta.
The sailing event also featured a Fortune Island race, Round-the-Island, and coastal races to Hamilo Coast to the Twin Island.
Catching favorable winds, in second place was Twin Popsies headed by Dylan Tantuico. They ruled the waves and led the first day’s competition but Atrevidos overtook them on the next day with a come-from-behind win and adept strategies. In third and fourth ranking were Cariño of Monchu Garcia and Captain Napoleon of Napoleon Paterakis, respectively.
Most of the participants of the Punta Fuego Regatta are business leaders belonging to the country’s elite and influential circle by day. On weekends or when they have spare time, they become seafarers who are devoted to this invigorating water sport in the open seas, giving them a sense of freedom and pleasure no other sport can.
Landco Pacific offered the final opportunity to be part of the exclusive Punta Fuego community. The newly-launched The Residences at Terrazas de Punta Fuego features one to three-bedroom luxury apartments within its beachfront condominium, comprising three clusters. These residences boast low-density living, panoramic views of Nasugbu Bay, and a seamless blend of Spanish Mediterranean and Asian Tropical architecture.
Club Punta Fuego, managed by Anya Hospitality Group (AHG), is the luxurious private Batangas beach resort with a Mediterranean-themed hotel and Spanish-inspired restaurant, an 18-hole golf course, and a yacht club. Its resort amenities also cater to homeowners and investors of seaside residential communities of the 88-hectare Peninsula de Punta Fuego and the 92-hectare Terrazas de Punta Fuego, two of the sprawling luxury properties developed by Landco Pacific Corporation. The premium real estate developer is a subsidiary of Metro Pacific Investments Corporation (MPIC) and known for pioneering premium landscapes for more than 30 years.
