The scenic Taal Lake in Talisay, Batangas, came alive today with the vibrant energy of the Talisay Fiesta Regatta 2024! Fifteen boats, each representing a barangay of Talisay and a private sector, battled it out in a thrilling race that started at the Taal Yacht Club and circled around the lake area of Club Balai Isabel and Talisay Boardwalk. The festive atmosphere was palpable from 10 am to 1 pm, as both participants and spectators cheered on their favorites.
The Results
In a close finish, Sta Maria—captained by Edwin and Santa Lucero—emerged victorious, claiming the top prize and bringing pride to their barangay. Isuzu Cavite, skippered by Paolo Topacio and Ella, came in a commendable second place, while Thom Kleiss of Holland secured the third position.
The awards were presented by the Municipal Admin Alfred Anciado & Taal Lake Yacht Club owner Peter Capotosto
