Italian duo Diego Negri and Sergio 'Ciccio' Lambertenghi claimed the coveted Gold Star at the 2026 Star World Championship in Miami, while Bermudian Olympian Peter Bromby secured a top-20 finish overall.
Hosted by the Coral Reef Yacht Club, the regatta—presented by Schoonmaker—concluded after six races on Biscayne Bay following a week marked by some of the most unpredictable sailing conditions the fleet has encountered in Miami.
Negri and Lambertenghi navigated the shifting conditions across the six-race series to clinch the world title and add their names to the Star Class roll of honour.
Bermuda's Bromby, sailing alongside Bahamian crew Myles Pritchard, finished 17th overall in the standings with 80 net points.
Heading into the final day of competition, Bromby and Pritchard recorded a 32nd-place finish in Race 5 before closing out their regatta with a 29th-place result in the sixth and final race.
