Month: April 2022

 

The weather once again altered the development of the Repsol Trophy for the second consecutive day and the more than 40 sailboats competing in the competition in the Rías Baixas had to face intense fog this Saturday

· Julio Rodríguez’s Magical (RCN Vigo), Rolando Andrade’s Sagar V (Ro Yacht Club) and Javier Rey’s Secolite (MRCYB) were placed at the head of the different ORC categories

· In the A Dos competition, with reduced crews, Yess led by Rui Ramada and Óscar Peixoto (MRCYB) is leading; and in J80 Javier Aguado’s Alboroto (MRCYB) gets even closer to the final victory after signing a new victory today

· The Repsol Trophy – 44th Spring Regatta organized by the Monte Real Yacht Club will be decided this Sunday on a single card with the start of the return route from Combarro to Baiona

The fog put in check this Saturday the fleet of more than 40 boats that these days are competing in the Rías Baixas for the Repsol Trophy – 44th Spring Regatta organized by the Monte Real Yacht Club.

After an opening day in which it was the wind that put the crews to the test, in this second stage the sailboats had to deal with fog, which forced the regatta committee to delay the start time and reposition the start until Two occasions.

Despite the difficulties registered in the first moments, once the test began, the sailboats sailed without too many problems during the journey of just over 17 miles from the north of Cíes to the island of Tambo, inside the Pontevedra estuary.

The 5 or 6 knots on average that were registered in the first moments increased in intensity as the hours passed and already in the last sections, with the fog already dissipated, they reached 18 and 19 knots, which speeded up the end of the competition.

In the ORC 1-2-3 class, the boats from Vigo and Canido went straight to the top of the standings. Julio Rodríguez’s Magical (RCN Vigo) was the fastest to complete the test, in 2 hours and 14 minutes, and holds provisional gold. In second position was Rodrigo Ojea’s Sailway (CM Canido); and Aceites Abril, skippered by Jorge Pérez Canal (RCN Vigo), is third.

In ORC 4, Rolando Andrade’s Sagar V (Ro Yacht Club) scored the best score of the day, rising directly to first place. The list of the three best of the day is completed by Vicente Cid’s Deep Blue 2.1 (RCN Vigo) and Carlos García’s Maracaná (RCM Aguete).

The ORC 5 competition was resolved with a victory for Javier Rey’s Secolite (MRCYB). Óscar José Comesaña’s Bouvento (MRCYB) will face the last day from second position and Antonio Francisco Gómez’s Marcolfo (RNC) will come third in the final.

The crew made up of the Portuguese Rui Ramada and the Galician Óscar González Peixoto was the best in the ORC A2 class, which entered the fray with teams made up of only two people. The Vagalume by Luis Vidal and Eva Fernández is second.

In the J80 class, Javier Aguado’s Alboroto faced this second day from the lead position and did not disappoint. He sailed very well again and achieved a new victory that allows him to maintain his dominance and brings him even closer to his laurels. With 2 points in the provisional classification, he is far from the 5 that Javier de la Gándara’s Okofen has, second in the table; and of the 9 of Cansino by Alejandra Suárez, which occupies the third drawer.

In the Figaro category , which although it competes within the ORC will receive prizes as its own class, Óscar José Comesaña’s Bouvento was the best. Ángela Rodríguez’s Silleiro and Marta Quintáns’s Erizana, all from Monte Real, are second and third.

The titles will be decided this Sunday to a single letter

After the celebration of the poles on Friday for the J80 and the regatta to Combarro this Saturday, the Repsol Trophy only has one day left to discover its winners. The titles will be decided this Sunday with a single letter, a single test of about 23 miles between Combarro and Baiona for the more than 40 crews aspiring to the different trophies.

Once the regatta is over, the Monte Real Club de Yates will host, starting at half past six in the afternoon, the awards ceremony for the winners. The Deputy Director and the Head of Marine and Fisheries of Repsol, Carlos Sánchez Nieto and Inés González Megido, will participate in it; and the president of the Monte Real Yacht Club, José Luis Álvarez. They will be accompanied by representatives of local, provincial and regional administrations.

The winners of the last edition of the Repsol Trophy were Rui Ramada’s Yess Racing (ORC 1-2), Ramón Ojea’s Bosch Service Solutions (ORC 3), Víctor Álvarez’s Nahela (ORC 4), Javier’s Q Talento Rey and Jorge Justo (A2), Javier de la Gándara’s Okofen (J80) and Miguel Montes’ Tutatis (Figaro).

· The J80 built by Juan Carlos Ameneiro and skippered by the former Spanish 8-meter champion was placed this Friday at the head of the Repsol Trophy, the 44th Monte Real Club de Yachts Spring Regatta

· The 8-meter sailboats were the only ones that competed on the first day of the competition, in which the scarce wind only allowed the celebration of one of the three scheduled tests

· Tomorrow, Saturday, we will see the entire fleet on the water, more than forty crews that will compete in a coastal route of about 23 miles between Baiona and Combarro

Javier Aguado’s Alboroto was placed at the head of the Repsol Trophy this Friday after winning the first and only test that could be played on the opening day of the competition organized by the Monte Real Yacht Club.

The sailboat armed by Juan Carlos Ameneiro and skippered by the former Spanish champion of the class, sailed the double windward-leeward course designed by the regatta committee in a very solid way, always at the head of the fleet, without giving a second of truce to its rivals.

Manel Cunha’s Marías and Javier de la Gándara’s Okofen chased him tirelessly throughout the route, approaching him on multiple occasions, but although the distances were minimal at times, and despite both knowing how to read the wind very well and not they failed in the maneuvers, neither one was able to overcome it.

Thus, the Alboroto is the first leader of the Repsol Trophy, a trophy that did not get off to a very good start due to the wind, which only allowed the holding of one of the three tests scheduled in the program. The sleeve was disputed with about 5 knots on average, even reaching 6, but little by little the wind dropped and it did not allow more tests to be put into play.

After Alboroto go Marías and Okofen, second and third respectively; and Manuel Jiménez’s Solventis and Chisco Catalán’s Hullmaxx close the ranking of the top five in a competition that still has two days to go.

The J80s were the undisputed stars of the day as they were the only ones to compete on this first day of the Repsol Trophy – 44th Spring Regatta. The 8 meters have more tests than the rest in this year’s competition as a formula for imposing the fleet ahead of the Spanish Championship that will be held next September in Baiona and the World Cup that the Galician fishing village will host in 2023.

In addition to the three trophies that will be awarded to the top finishers, the monotypes are also eligible for a special prize of 7,000 euros with which Monte Real will sponsor the trip and the competition of the winning boat to the European class to be held in July in France.

On the second day of the trophy, which will begin at twelve noon this Saturday, we will be able to see the entire fleet on the water. The more than 40 registered will fight on a route of about 23 miles to Combarro. Among the participants, a whole cast of boats with high-level sailors who will guarantee the show in the Rías Baixas.

One of the winners of the previous edition, the Portuguese Rui Ramada, will go out on the water with the aim of winning a new trophy, although this time in the A Two category, in which he will compete aboard the Yess together with Óscar González Peixoto . They will face off against teams like those from Salaño Dos, led by Jacobo Vecino and Brenda Maure, recent winners of the Comunica Trophy; or the Vagalume, by Luis Vidal and Eva Fernández.

Ramada will no longer be a rival to beat in the ORC competition, in which there will be crews as powerful as those of the Aceites Abril of the brothers Luis and Jorge Pérez Canal; or the Magical by Julio Rodríguez, both from the Real Club Náutico de Vigo. The Portuguese Ifaclinic.com, by Joao Allen, from the Yacht Clube do Porto; the Bon III of Víctor Carrión, of the Club Náutico Punta Lagoa; Deep Blue 2.1 by Vicente Cid, from the Real Club Náutico de Vigo; or Victor Álvarez’s Nahela, from Club Deportivo Alagua, will be other teams that we will see tomorrow heading to Combarro.

The 6 Beneteau Figaros that the Monte Real Yacht Club brings out to competition with crews made up of students from its Sailing School, including some exclusively female, will compete within the ORC class, but will also be eligible for prizes as a specific category.

Once this test is over, the only one of the day, the Repsol Trophy will still have one last day ahead of it, on the Sunday of the first of May, in which the boats will be measured by completing the reverse route, from Combarro to Baiona.

The rest of the classes (also including the J80) will go out to compete tomorrow, Saturday, on a coastal route between Baiona and Combarro that will start at noon.

 

· The classic event of the Monte Real Yacht Club in which more than 40 boats will participate recovers in 2022 the program of round-trip coastal regattas between the Vigo and Pontevedra estuaries linking Baiona and Combarro

· Another novelty of this competition, one of the most traditional events in the Spanish nautical calendar, is the inclusion of the windward-leeward courses that had been stopped in recent years

· The most outstanding crews from Galicia will participate in a trophy in which the J80 fleet will play, in addition to the title, a sponsorship of 7,000 euros to travel to the European class that takes place in July in French Brittany

The Monte Real Yacht Club and Repsol are putting together the classic Spring Regatta, one of the longest-running events on the Spanish nautical calendar, which this year celebrates its forty-fourth edition with the participation of more of 40 boats and novelties in its sports program.

Among the changes introduced in the competition, the first and most notable is that the round-trip coastal regattas between the Vigo and Pontevedra estuaries are recovered. The last competition with this design was held in 2016, with a navigation to Sanxenxo; and after years moving through the Vigo estuary and the Cíes and Ons archipelago, in this 2022 the Monte Real Yacht Club chose Combarro as the port of destination.

The participating crews will arrive at the picturesque town of Pontevedra from Baiona on Saturday, April 30, and a day later, on Sunday, May 1, they will make the reverse route, back to Monte Real, where the trophies of the different classes will be waiting for their respective winners.

The two coastal regattas will be held over the weekend, but the 2022 Repsol Trophy will include three more races on Friday afternoon. There will be three windward-leeward type routes in which only the J80 fleet will participate.

The return of the poles to the competition program is another novelty this year and the special prominence given to the 8-meter crews is motivated by the fact that this is one of the most numerous classes in the competitions held in Galicia, and due to the proximity of the Spanish Championship and the World Class to be held in Baiona.

Thus, the J80 that is the winner in the Spring Regatta will be sponsored with 7,000 euros by the Baiona club so that it can travel to the European class that takes place in July in French Brittany.

The Commodore of Monte Real, Ignacio Sánchez Otaegui, who is also part of the J80 fleet, assures that it is “a necessary boost for the Galician monotypes to continue growing and improving in the face of the big events in which Galicia will be the protagonist and in which we hope that our crews give the best of themselves and the best image for the world” .

This was what he said at the official presentation of the event held this Thursday in Baiona, in which Repsol’s Head of Marine and Fisheries, Inés González Megido, highlighted “The close relationship the club and the company have been able to maintain over the years to consolidate a competition as important for Galicia as the Spring Regatta” .

The president of Monte Real, José Luis Álvarez, influenced the same idea, for whom the Repsol Trophy is undoubtedly “one of the most important regattas of the club, not only because of its 44 years of life, but also because it has been with the same sponsor for more than 20 years, something unusual” that “makes us feel very proud -he said- of the trust placed by Repsol in us” .

The Repsol Trophy is part of the Monte Real “Sailing for Women” program and this will involve the participation of three crews made up exclusively of women. This boost to women in sailing was something that the General Secretary for Sport of the Xunta de Galicia highlighted in his speech. José Ramón Lete Lasa said that “the number of sports licenses grew by 12 percent last year and that of women by 33 percent, which reveals – he assured – the good work that Galician sport is doing in promoting women ” .

The increase in female crews also occupied part of the speech by the Sports Deputy of the Pontevedra Provincial Council, Gorka Gómez, who pointed out the “nice coincidence” that it will mean seeing more women than usual competing on Mother’s Day, which will be celebrate this weekend. The head of provincial sports also wanted to recognize “the enormous effort and work done by the club and the administrations to keep the sport in very good health – he said – during the COVID years”.

The person in charge of closing the official presentation of the competition was the mayor of Baiona, Carlos Gómez, who referred to the high level of competitions that Monte Real will include this year, in which it will bring to Baiona such prestigious events as the Super Series. “Our town – said the alderman – It will continue to be a clear benchmark at the international tourism level and with that ambition we work both from the club and from the town hall” .

The opening of the Repsol Trophy – 44th Spring Regatta is scheduled for this Friday at four in the afternoon, the time at which the starting horn will be given for the first of the day’s three races. On Saturday and Sunday the competition will start at noon, and the awards ceremony is scheduled for the last day at half past six in the afternoon.

· Julio Rodríguez’s Magical, Vicente Cid’s Deep Blue 2.1 and Jacobo Vecino and Brenda Maure’s Salaño 2, all from RCN Vigo won in the large boat categories

· Of the Monte Real fleet, Javier Aguado’s Alboroto won the J80 class and Javier Bernardez’s Bouvento won the Figaro class

· The victory in the regatta that was included as a novelty in this edition, between Combarro and Baiona, the winner was the Maracaná of Carlos García of the RCM Aguete

A new edition of the Comunica Trophy of the Monte Real Yacht Club has successfully concluded, which this year extended routes and added collaborators to celebrate a double regatta with departures from Combarro and Vigo, both with arrival in Baiona.

The first to hear the initial honk was the test that started from Combarro, in which a single category, ORC, was put into contention. At twelve noon, the 7 boats registered to complete this route set out along the Pontevedra estuary.

The fastest to complete the test was the RCM Aguete’s Maracaná, skippered by Carlos García; and after the compensation of times, he was also the winner of the trophy that was put into play from the town of Pontevedra. Luis Pérez’s Balea Dous was in second place and Rolando Andrade’s Sagar V Ro Yachts closed the final podium in third place.

In the Vigo-Baiona race, the first to cross the finish line was Julio Rodríguez’s Magical (RCN Vigo) who competed in the ORC 1-2-3 class. He was the fastest and also the winner of the category, ahead of Aceites Abril of the brothers Luis and Jorge Pérez Canal (RNC Vigo) and Bon III of Víctor Carrión, of CN Punta Lagoa, who came second and third.

The three, and in general all the crews, sailed at a very good pace with a wind that remained quite stable, blowing from the west with an average of 12 knots in the first few miles and a little less intensity as the competition progressed. Although the forecasts called for rain, the truth is that the weather was forgiving and the test took place without heavy showers, and with clouds and clearings for practically the entire route, which passed through Subrido, La Negra and Carallones.

In the ORC 4-5-6 class, the gold also went to the Real Club Náutico de Vigo in the hands of Vicente Cid’s Deep Blue 2.1. La Burla Negra by Juan José Martínez (CN Castrelo de Miño) and Nahela by Víctor Manuel Álvarez (CD Alagua) took silver and bronze.

The triumph in the A Dos division went to the Salaño Dos of Jacobo Vecino and Brenda Maure, a great tandem and regulars on the podiums of this type of competition with reduced crews. They prevailed over their colleagues from the Real Club Náutico de Vigo del Bonaventure, José Luis Ríos and María Jesús Montes; and about Rodrigo Rodríguez and Rodrigo Rodríguez Campos aboard the Alalunga (CM Canido).

In the J80 class, the largest with 15 registered units, the winner was Javier Aguado’s Alboroto (MRCYB), ahead of Rafael Blanco’s Due (RCN Portosín) and Santiago Estévez’s Spaco (MRCYB), second and third respectively. .

Among the Figaros, Javier Bernardez’s Bouvento rose to the top of the podium. Behind, second place was occupied by Zoe Ayestarán’s Tutatis and Julia Correa’s Serralleiras finished third. The three teams raced through the Monte Real Club de Yates.

The best female crew was that of Zoe Ayestaran’s Tutatis, which received a special award within the framework of the “Vela en Feminino” program at Monte Real, with which the club seeks to promote the figure of women and increase the number of women who compete in regattas.

The finishing touch to this new format of the Comunica Trophy, a double test, was given by the awards ceremony for the winners, which was held in the afternoon at the facilities of the Monte Real Yacht Club. Participating in it, among others, were the president of the Monte Real Yacht Club, José Luis Álvarez; and Roberto Lira, the general director of Comunica Comunicación Visual, sponsor firm of the event. It is a company from A Guarda that offers printing services, signs, industrial design and acrylic articles throughout Galicia from the municipality of A Guarda, where its main headquarters are located.

During the event, the opening of the registration period for the Repsol Trophy, the next competition of the Baionese club, which will be held, as has become a tradition, around the May Day holiday, was announced. This year, the regatta days will be Friday 29th and Saturday 30th April, and Sunday 1st May. And just like what happened with the Comunica Trophy, the classic Monte Real Spring Regatta will also bring news in 2022. They will be announced next Thursday 28 at the official presentation of the competition.
