More than 50 boats participated in one of the biggest sailing events in Greek waters, the Posidonia Cup Yacht Race, in four categories -Standard, Performance, IRC and Classic.

The 8th Posidonia Cup sailing regatta was successfully completed on Friday 3 June 2016 in Faliron Bay in which LALIZAS company was a main sponsor of Posidonia Cup. In addition we also raced with Mr. Laliza’s boat HADI at the category standard and our final position was 5th out of 17 boats in the standard category. A very important recognition for our company was when our President and CEO Stavros Lalizas received an award from Posidonia and HORC at the official Posidonia Cup Ceremony the same day.
