The Mrduja Optimist Cup, or fondly called Little Mrduja, is the traditional first qualifying regatta of the Optimist class for the southern region.
From Friday to Sunday, another edition of the Mrduja Optimist Cup – In Memoriam Boris Vujnović – took place in the Split sailing area. A large fleet of 97 Optimists sailed for two days, while on the third and final day, the race committee decided not to hold races on Sunday due to unpromising weather conditions.
