SILVERRUDER 2025 – A Challenge of the Sea 🌊 300 boats. 42 of them BENETEAUs. One shared spirit. The legendary 134 NM solo race around Funen wrapped up with the crowning of a new EUROSAF BENETEAU First 27 SE European Single-Handed Champion. 🏆 Top 3 – BENETEAU First 27 SE European Championship: 🥇 Kåre Gibsholm-Madsen (Denmark) 🥈 Peder Edman (Sweden) 🥉 Janne Magnusson (Sweden) 👏 Top 3 – BENETEAU First 24 SE: 1️⃣ Jacques Nesseler 2️⃣ Alexander Lohmann 3️⃣ Andreas Busse 🙌 BENETEAU First 18 SE: Juliaene Hausmann 💪 BENETEAU First 30: Per Cederberg Huge congratulations to all the First sailors who took on this iconic challenge. Because all great experiences are never comfortable — they demand courage, patience, and heart. But that’s how you earn something real. The kind of joy that stays with you long after the sails are down — until the next First SE race. And our community knows that well. ⚓️ Thanks for coming, thanks for your support — see you soon! #BeneteauFirst #Silverrudder #First27SE #SailingCommunity #ChallengeOfTheSea
