CHI 2110, Pisco Sour, the former Mutua Madrilena, will take part in the 2009 Audi MedCup TP52 circuit. She has been entered, without a sponsor (as yet) by Vasco Vascotto, who, as helmsman of the Damiani Italia Challenge, finished fourth in the recent Louis Vuitton Pacific Series in Auckland.

"The boat has been modified to include the latest ideas of designer Rolf Vrolijk", according to Vascotto, who is the technical director of the Dabliu Sail Project. "This means that she resembles the boats most recently designed by that studio - Matador and Artemis."

Most of the crew will remain the same, but Alberto Bolzan has been brought in as helmsman. "I believe that he is one of the greatest prospects in international sailing", said Vascotto.
