The regatta calendar of the Monte Real Club de Yates opens next January with the celebration of the first two tests of the VITALDENT J80 WINTER TROPHY , a competition for these monotypes that will include competitions on Saturday 17 and 31. The trophy will continue in February, on the 14th and 28th, and will end with three more regattas on the 14th, 28th and 29th of March.
In the month of April, the leading role is exclusively for the WINTER REGATTA , which this year celebrates its tenth edition. It will be played on Saturdays 18 and 25, and will include technical and coastal routes.
May will begin with the thirty-eighth edition of the SPRING REGATTA REPSOL TROPHY , on days 1, 2 and 3. It is a test in which the crews fine-tune their boats to face the strong area of the regatta season.
One more year, the Monte Real Club de Yates is once again firmly committed to grassroots sports, promoting children’s and youth sailing regattas. On the 9th and 10th of May it organizes the CHILDREN’S SAILING REGATTA · BAITRA TROPHY , and the 23rd and 24th are reserved for the BAITRA 420 TROPHY .
In June comes the traditional GALICIAN CHAMPIONSHIP OF SOLITARIOS YA TWO . It will be on the 13th and 14th. It is a medium-distance regatta in which the main handicap is having to handle the boats alone or with another crew member.
A weekend later, on the 19th, 20th and 21st, the SPANISH CHAMPIONSHIP OF THE CLASS 2.4 mR · VITALDENT TROPHY OF ADAPTED SAILING ; and to end the month, the club has scheduled the final tests of the SOCIAL LEAGUE , a competition played throughout the year by all the boys and girls of the MRCYB Sailing School.
In July one of the club’s most charismatic regattas arrives, the CONDE DE GONDOMAR TROPHY , which is celebrating its anniversary this year. 40 years have passed since the first edition, held in 1976. It will include, as usual, one of the most attractive races for cruising sailing in Spain, the Baiona-Finisterre-Baiona route, over 100 miles long, rounding the mythical Carrumeiro Chico lighthouse. The trophy is scheduled for July 23, 24, 25 and 26.
Another event that is celebrating its anniversary in 2015 is the PRÍNCIPE DE ASTURIAS TROPHY , which has been held continuously since 1986. Thirty years after that first edition, in which the then heir to the throne, Don Felipe de Borbón, participated, the trophy will once again be held in the waters of the Bay of Baiona on September 4, 5 and 6. It will also be the J80 IBERIAN CHAMPIONSHIP . Along with the traditional sporting events in which everyone has a place (regatta sailboats, cruisers, monotypes, classics…) there will be breakfasts, meetings, tastings, fireworks, parties…
Within the framework of the Prince of Asturias Trophy, the Monte Real Yacht Club will deliver the TERRAS GAUDA NATIONAL SAILING AWARDS . They are awards created 23 years ago with the aim of recognizing the work of different people and institutions in favor of the world of sailing, as well as its human and sporting values.
In October and November the tests organized exclusively for the J80 return, with the J80 AUTUMN TROPHY . It will be held on Saturdays October 17 and 31, and November 14 and 28.
