The arrival of this competition in Galicia represents a new success in the efforts of the recently re-elected board of directors of Monte Real, headed by José Luis Álvarez and Alechu Retolaza as president and vice president; and the fulfillment of one of the objectives set: that of returning to the MRCYB the international prestige it once had.

After having managed to attract Baiona to the famous 52 SUPER SERIES in 2022 and having hosted the J80 class World Championship in 2023; This year it will be the RC44, another one-design, in a new commitment to the “One design”, with all the teams sailing in identical boats.

The sailboat, created by the considered best skipper in the history of the America’s Cup, the New Zealander Russell Coutts, is a highly competitive boat worth around one million euros. A sailboat built in carbon fiber, very light, 13.45 meters (44 feet), with a large sail area and the most advanced navigation systems.

At the head of these haggling machines are shipowners with great economic potential, who hire their crews by recruiting Olympic medalists, America’s Cup crew members and sailors from the Round the World Sailing Championship. A complete cast of professionals from all over the world who guarantee spectacular regattas wherever they go.

In 2024, this show represented by the RC44 and the 44CUP will stop in Baiona with all the impact that this implies, with the presence of some of the best names in world sailing and figures that speak of an economic return that exceeds one million euros in the venues.

The Prince of Asturias Trophy, within which framework the Terras Gauda National Sailing Awards, will be held from September 6 to 8; and the J80 will once again have their two leagues own, the winter one (February 10 and 24, March 9 and 23 and April 6) and the autumn one (October 5 and 19, November 9 and 23 and December 14).

The organization of regattas is, along with the promotion of national and international nautical tourism, one of the main objectives of Monte Real, which has nautical training as its third line of action.

Baiona awards the winners of the 38th Prince of Asturias Trophy

· In his first participation in the Príncipe de Asturias, Nuno Neves’ Syone Panther from Portugal took victory both in the ABANCA ORC 1-2 class and in the overall overall, while Francisco Edreira’s Urbapaz revalidated the title and hung the gold in the Aceites Abril ORC 3-4 class

· In the Gadis ORC 5, Volvo Autesa Open 1 and SH Robotic Open 2 classes, the winners were Cinco Islas Albariño, Salseiro and Argalleiro

· The Hotel Princesa Yaiza from the Canary Islands won in the Solventis J80 class, reaffirming itself as one of the favorites for the World Cup; and the Tutatis de Marta Ramada won the Gestilar Ladies Cup

The Prince of Asturias Trophy already has new winners. In a most complicated day due to the absence and instability of the wind, the event organized by the Monte Real Club de Yates and the Escuela Naval Militar with the sponsorship of ABANCA closed this Sunday crowning the winners of its thirty-eighth edition .

The conditions were, without a doubt, the great protagonists of the day. In the Cíes Islands area, where the ORC 1-2, 3-4 and J80 classes competed, and with a southeasterly component wind with hardly any pressure, the Race Committee raised the postponement flag at twelve o’clock on noon, the time at which the last tests were scheduled to begin. As the hours passed, things did not improve and finally at half past three in the afternoon the third and last day of competition came to an end. The Open participants, ORC 5 and the Figaro of the Gestilar Ladies Cup had more luck, who were able to add the last sets to their scoreboard.

The Syone Panther wins the ABANCA ORC class 1-2 in its first participation in the Príncipe

Victory for the Portuguese Syone Panther of Nuno Neves in the ABANCA ORC 1-2 class. In its first participation in the Príncipe de Asturias Trophy, the Lisbon Naval Association boat managed to proclaim itself the winner both in its category and in the ORC absolute general thanks to a great performance on the regatta field, which gave it an advantage of one point over the second classified, the Aceites Abril of the brothers Luis and Jorge Pérez Canal of the Real Club Náutico de Vigo.

This turnaround in the final classification (the Syone Panther rose to first position, making Pérez Canal’s men fall to second) despite not having held any test this Sunday, was motivated by a request submitted by the Portuguese crew for the review of the results by sections of the last regatta of the championship, a test that was finally canceled and whose resolution benefited the Neves team.

In addition to the second position in this class, Aceites Abril took the North Zone Spain Cup for ORC 1-2, which was put into play in the Baionese competition.

Urbapaz was proclaimed winner in the Aceites Abril ORC 3-4 class

In the classification of the Aceites Abril ORC 3-4 class, the victory remained in the hands of Francisco Edreira’s Urbapaz from Club Náutico Cabanas, who thus revalidated the victory obtained in 2022, with a point advantage over the second classified, the Sailway of Ramón Ojea from the Canido Maritime Club. Behind, the review of results that had given third place to Adegas Terrae led by Vicente Cid, favored the team from Club Marítimo Carrumeiro Raygrass III led by José Antonio Núñez, who finally climbed to third place on the podium.

Second coastal race for Open and ORC 5

The three categories that had a coastal one on their program for this Sunday – the Gadis ORC 5, Volvo Autesa Open 1 and SH Robotic Open 2 classes – played a seven-mile course.

In Gadis ORC 5 there were no surprises and the Cinco Islas Albariño of the Club Náutico de Beluso skippered by Iñaki Carbajo won again with full authority, proclaiming himself the winner of the Príncipe de Asturias ahead of Boeiro de Jaime García (RCN Vigo) and Aquilón de Roberto Telle (MRCYB), second and third respectively.

In Volvo Autesa Open 1, the final victory was awarded to Manuel Blanco’s Salseiro (RCN Coruña). They were followed overall by José Alejandro Martínez’s Edge (RCN Rodeira) in second place and Joao Tourigo’s Five (Club We Do Sailing) was third.

There were no changes at the top of the SH Robotic Open 2 general standings and Fernando Otero’s Argalleiro (RCM Aguete) finished at the top of the final standings ahead of Fernando Rey’s Albarellos (MRCYB) and Alberto González’s Villa de Marín -Cela (CNR Marín), second and third respectively.

In this category, as every year thanks to the support of the Department of Social Policy of the Xunta, the boat of the adapted sailing school of Monte Real with the students of the Juan María de Nigrán Center, the Bellatrix, also competed.

Victory for the Canarian Hotel Princesa Yaiza in Solventis J80

More than tight was this thirty-eighth edition of the Prince in the Solventis J80 class with the first three teams separated by a single point. With the last blank day, the Hotel Princesa Yaiza by Rayco Tabarés of the Real Club Náutico de Arrecife became the new champion of the Baionese event this Sunday. A result that reaffirms him as one of the great favorites for the World Cup that will be held on the same regatta course in just two weeks. The second position finally went to the Solintal of Ignacio Camino of the Real Club Marítimo de Santander and third the Coruña Kotablue Fibra Coruña 14/18 of Miguel Fernández (RCN Coruña).

Marta Ramada’s Tutatis wins the Gestilar Ladies Cup

The fleet from Figaros that was playing the twenty-seventh edition of the Gestilar Ladies Cup was also able to compete in the Bay of Baiona regatta course with a light easterly wind that allowed the regatta committee to honk for the last two races of the Prince of Asturias Trophy.

Marta Ramada’s Tutatis, who sails under the Monte Real pennant, took the plunge and won two first places this Sunday, thus making the team the winner of the prestigious women’s event. They also did so with a five point advantage over the second classified, the Erizana sailors from the Real Club Náutico Puerto de Pollensa. Third was Carlota Hernández’s Serralleiras (MRCYB).

The Adapted Sailing School of the Monte Real Club de Yates has just received a new endorsement from the Xunta de Galicia. A collaboration agreement signed this Monday with Deporte Galego will allow the Baionese club to continue promoting activities with groups at risk of social exclusion.

The General Secretary for Galician Sports, José Ramón Lete Lasa, was in charge of ratifying with his signature the support that the regional administration will provide in 2023 to the School, created more than ten years ago under the motto “Sailing for all”. .

Although at first the objective was to offer people with functional diversity (with physical, sensory, intellectual or mental disabilities), the possibility of sailing and enjoying the sea in equal conditions, in recent years, the school’s activities have been been expanding to other groups at risk of social exclusion.

Currently, the proposals also extend to users of residences for the elderly in Galicia, children with behavioral problems, children under guardianship and women victims of sexist violence. With some of them, in addition to leisure and school activities, inclusions are made in high-level competitions, such as the Prince of Asturias Trophy, in which in recent editions an adapted boat has sailed.

The economic amount that the agreement signed with Deporte Galego will entail will allow the Bayonian club to consolidate one of its flagship projects, through which hundreds of students from different groups and associations in Galicia have passed since its creation in 2012.

It took time to appear, but once it appeared, it displayed very good conditions. The tests scheduled in the program were held, three routes in the form of a trapeze (two for the J80 and one for the ORCs) that would be decisive in order to make up the podiums of the different classes.

The Repsol Trophy fleet shows its teeth

 

· With only one day to go until the end of the competition, the contenders for the title in the different categories of the Repsol Trophy fought tooth and nail for the coastal regatta between Combarro and Baiona held this Sunday

· Delays in the starts due to lack of wind, out of line, disqualifications and some protests marked a penultimate day that anticipates a lot of emotion for the final stage scheduled for this Monday

· The Deep Blue 2.1 in the ORC 4 class and the Salaño Dos in the A2 class were the only boats capable of repeating victory and adding two first places in the two races held

· The regatta program for the May Day holiday includes two trapeze-type events at the Cíes Islands anchorage and the prize-giving ceremony for the winners

With only one day left to go before the competition ends, the 50 boats that are taking part in the 45th Spring Regatta – Repsol Trophy on this May Day weekend fought tooth and nail on the coast between Combarro and Baiona held this Sunday in the Rías Baixas.

After more than two hours of waiting due to lack of wind inside the Pontevedra estuary, and with the fleet impatient because of their desire to haggle, the starts of the different classes (ORCs and J80) were not without controversy.

When the race committee honked for the ORCs, three boats from Vigo with title aspirations, Víctor Carrión’s Bon III, Julio Rodríguez’s Magical and the Pérez Canal brothers’ Aceites Abril, were out of line. The three had to resume the start to be able to continue in competition, but only two of them did. El Bon III, who had been leading the ORC 1-2-3 since the first day, failed to comply and was disqualified.

The J80s didn’t have a smooth start either. With 10 seconds left for the committee to start sailing towards Baiona, a large part of the fleet was already out of line due to a role of wind and the start had to be repeated. The field was readjusted and the black flag was raised, which would imply the disqualification of any boat that crossed the line during the minute before the start. The only boat affected was Antonio Francisco Gómez’s Arriscao, which was left out of the test.

After these incidents with the starts, sailing, with a couple of exceptions, was very tight, a clear sign of the crews’ desire to fight the regatta with all possible means and gain a place in the honorary positions of the classification.

Aceites Abril and Magical were always in the lead, with Yess Too at their stern without losing sight of them. The rest of the fleet sailed in a handkerchief along the Costa de la vela and the inner face of the Cíes archipelago and it was not until they reached Carallones, a mandatory beacon, that some began to mark positions and extend distances inland. the bay of Baiona, where the finish line was placed in front of the Parador Nacional.

In the ORC 1-2-3 class , the out-of-line of Bon III, who had been the leader of the previous day, made him fall to the last position. The stage victory went to Aceites Abril of the Pérez Canal, but Ramón Ojea’s Sailway overtook them in the general classification thanks to the two second places it achieved in the two tests held so far. Those from Canido are first followed by Aceites, Magical and Narval, which are tied on points in second, third and fourth position.

In the ORC 4 class , Vicente Cid’s Deep Blue 2.1 (RCN Vigo), the only one with two consecutive victories, is one of the most solvent boats in the competition. Two first places with which, if he manages to maintain his streak this Monday, he would win the trophy. The Unus of Luis García Trigo (MRCYB), with provisional silver; and La Burla Negra by Juan José Martínez (CN Castrelo de Miño), with bronze; second and third place were exchanged with respect to the previous day.

In the ORC class 5, the Balea Dous (RCN Rodeira) from Cangues, led by Luis Pérez, were the best of the day and having won the stage allowed them to rise to second place overall, in which Victor Manuel’s Nahela Álvarez (CD Alagua) is still in the lead. The Squid II of Francisco Lusquiños (CN Portonovo) is third.

In the A2 class , the Salaño Dos owned by Jacobo Vecino and Brenda Maure (RCN Vigo) is the other boat that, together with the Deep Blue, was able to repeat the victory on this second day. In this way, he consolidates his privileged position at the top of the provisional podium with the Aquilón by Roberto Telle and Genoveva Pereiro (MRCYB); and the Asante Sana by Juan Carlos Trabazos and Joaquin Dasilva (LM Bouzas) in the second and third drawer respectively.

It holds the provisional gold with four points, the same as the Rampage, which remain in the silver position. In third position is Marías by Manel Cunha.

The 45th Spring Regatta – Repsol Trophy began to define its classifications this Saturday after the first of the three days of competition that will be held in the Rías Baixas until next Monday under the organization of the Monte Real Club de Yates de Baiona.

In this first stage, the route for the 50 participating boats was the little more than 23 miles that separate the Baionesa bay from the interior of the Pontevedra estuary, a route that the fastest boats completed in almost four and a half hours, on a cloudy day, with mist , some occasional showers and a wind not too intense but enough not to stall the fleet.

The largest boats, grouped in the ORC 1-2-3 class , were the fastest to complete the slightly over 23-mile run between Baiona and Combarro. The Magical of the Real Club Náutico de Vigo, skippered by Julio Rodríguez, crossed the finish line first after 4 hours and 22 minutes of sailing. The Swan 42 managed to win in real time against Yess Too owned by Rui Ramada (MRCYB) and Aceites Abril owned by the Pérez Canal brothers (RCN Vigo), both Swan 45s.

The three of them remained at the head of the fleet throughout the entire journey, with different strategies and different board choices but with very similar results. Behind them, two smaller boats, Víctor Carrión’s Bon III (CN Punta Lagoa) and Ramón Ojea’s Sailway (CM Canido) stood out for their good work in the regatta. Despite having less length, they did not lose sight of the largest at any time and this benefited them when the race committee compensated the times, allowing them to finish first and second respectively. The third box on the provisional podium is occupied by the Narval of José Antonio Portas (CN Vilagarcía).

In the ORC class 4 , one of the tightest, where a large part of the fleet sailed without achieving large margins over its closest rivals, took victory one of the crews who are regulars on the podiums of the competitions in the Rías Baixas, the Deep Blue of Vicente Cid (RCN Vigo). He achieved victory in the first stage, beating La Burla Negra by Juan José Martínez (CN Castrelo de Miño) and Unus by Luis García Trigo (MRCYB) who, pending what happens in the next two days, hold the silver and the provisional bronze.

The ORC 5 class dispute was resolved with the victory of Nahela, the guard boat skippered by Víctor Manuel Álvarez (CD Alagua). Two crews from the Morrazo area, Iñaki Carbajo’s Cinco Islas Albariño (CN Beluso) and Luis Pérez’s Balea Dous (RCN Rodeira) will fight to snatch the first position from the second and third place they achieved this Saturday.

In the A2 class , the couple formed by Jacobo Vecino and Brenda Maure, recent winners of the CdeC Trophy in the same category, once again showed their four-handed navigation skills, winning on this first day with Salaño Dos, from Real Vigo Yacht Club. Along with them, only one other boat finished the test, the Aquilón of Roberto Telle and Genoveva Pereiro, from the Monte Real Club de Yates.

In the J80 class , one of the news of the day was the return to competition, after a few months on standby, of Javier de la Gándara’s Okofen. With his usual crew, the skipper from Vigo showed that he had not lost steam, making it very difficult for Javier Aguado’s Alboroto, who started as favourite. Both maintained an intense one-on-one, very close throughout the entire course and at the head of the fleet. But in the last section, already towards the interior of the Pontevedra estuary, Solventis Ribadeo, owned by Manuel Jiménez, gave the surprise of the day. He picked up a great pace and passed them all, taking more and more distance from them. He finished first and took the stage victory ahead of Alboroto and Okofen, who came second and third respectively.

This first day of the Monte Real Spring Regatta, which ended with a snack and a concert in Combarro, marked the debut in competition of Repsol’s new fuel , 100% renewable and with zero emissions. The support boats of the Bayonés club went out into the water with this fuel made from waste, with which the energy company seeks to reduce its carbon footprint. For Monte Real it was the first test of a fuel that the club hopes to be able to use in the J80 World Cup that it is organizing next September.

Before that, it will be used again this Sunday and Monday in the two days that remain for the Repsol Trophy. The Sunday stage will mean the return of the fleet to Baiona from Combarro. The start, if the weather allows it, will be given at twelve noon and the participants will have 23 miles ahead of them with a reverse route to that of the opening day. In the afternoon, once the race is over, the crews will be able to enjoy a seafood dinner in the Monte Real gardens before the final stage on Monday.

Two boats, the Narval from the Club Náutico de Vilagarcía, skippered by José Antonio Portas; and the Nahela of the Alagua Sports Club (A Guarda), led by Víctor Manuel Álvarez; they quickly took the lead, leaving the rest of the boats at their stern during the entire course.

Nahela finished second and the Cinco Islas Albariño of Iñaki Carbajo (CN Beluso) closed the podium in third position.

The fastest to complete that distance was Yess Too, owned by Rui Ramada, from Monte Real, which took just over two hours to cross the finish line. The outstanding Portuguese skipper was the fastest but the time compensation made him fall to third position behind Bon III of Víctor Carrión (CN Punta Lagoa) and Magical of Julio Rodríguez (RCN Vigo), who stayed at the gates to revalidate the victory of the previous edition.

There was also a category A Two, for teams made up only of a skipper and a crew member, in which Salaño Dos of the couple formed by Jacobo Vecino and Brenda Maure (RCN Vigo) won, a very well-matched duo that for years has It has very well taken measures for this type of navigation. In second and third position were the Bonaventure of José Luis Ríos and María Jesús Montes (RCN Vigo); and the Aquilón by Roberto Telle and Genoveva Pereiro (MRCYB).

But although at first it was created solely for people with different disabilities (physical, sensory, intellectual or mental), in recent years it has been expanded and, currently, it also offers activities for the elderly, children under guardianship and women victims of gender violence.

Since its creation in 2012, hundreds of students from groups and associations from different parts of Galicia have passed through it to navigate the bay of Baiona in the club’s adapted boats.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS !

Dear friends and friends,

In the next few days the current year will end, and for this reason I wish to convey to you on behalf of the Board of Directors and all the Club’s workers, our best wishes for these Christmas days and next year 2023.

It has been a year with an extraordinary sporting activity that those of us who practice the sport of sailing have enjoyed. In addition to our complete regatta calendar, we managed to bring the third most important competition in the world to Galicia for the first time, the SUPER SERIES, an event that once again positioned MRCYB on international circuits. We also organize, at the proposal of the Royal Spanish Sailing Federation, three Spanish championships: one complete and two finals.

The good work and professionalism of the entire MRCYB team also made it possible for us to organize the J80 class World Championship in 2023, one more reason to feel proud and grateful to those who have worked hard to achieve it.

As the Board of Directors, I would also like to express our gratitude to the institutional and private sponsors for their commitment to the MRCYB. And to the media that, with their collaboration, allow our sailing sport to reach society with greater amplitude.

And finally, as always, the most endearing memory for those who have left us and for their families. They will always be part of our memory.

Thank you all very much and Happy Holidays,

Jose Luis Alvarez
President MRCYB

· The sights of the crew that under the leadership of Ameneiro complete Javier Aguado, Javier Lago and Juan Lago are already set on the J80 World Championship to be held next year in Baiona

Juan Carlos Ameneiro’s Alboroto won this Saturday the Gestilar J80 Autumn League that had been taking place since last October in Baiona Bay under the organization of the Monte Real Club de Yates.

He did it, moreover, forcefully, achieving two victories in the two tests held and being, once again, the best of the stage, something he had already achieved in four of the five days that included the one-design group, having only escaped the triumph of the third phase at the hands of Solventis Ribadeo.

The team that under the leadership of Ameneiro completes Javier Aguado, Javier Lago and Juan Lago, was undoubtedly the best in the championship. He ended up with partial scores of 1-1-1-8-4-2-2-1-1 and 21 points in the final standings; and received his award from the delegate of Gestilar in Galicia, Alfonso López; and the president of the Monte Real Club de Yates, José Luis Álvarez.

The award was the perfect finishing touch to a spectacular season. El Alboroto began 2022 with the disappointment that the Winter League escaped them at the hands of Javier de la Gándara’s Okofen, but from second position, he made it very clear that this season he was going to wage war in the water. And so he did.

In April they won the Comunica Trophy, in May the Repsol Trophy, and in July the Conde de Gondomar Trophy. They were the appetizers of one of the key calls of the season for the J80 fleet, the Spanish Championship, in which they had all their sights set. They went all out and did not disappoint, becoming national class champions.

Now, with this new victory in the Gestilar J80 Autumn League, the Rampage closes 2022 with a more than positive annual balance. Its leader, Juan Carlos Ameneiro, was very satisfied for having more than met -he said- expectations. “We have been improving month by month and we have also done so within a fleet that is increasingly competitive. The truth is that it has been a very good year and we are very happy with the results”.

El Alboroto says goodbye to the year with the feeling of homework done, but already announces that, after the well-deserved rest from the impasse of the Christmas holidays, he will return with more enthusiasm if possible to the competitions. In their sights they have the great event of the 2023 J80 World Cup, which the Monte Real Club de Yates will organize in September in Baiona. It is the first world championship of the class to be held in Galicia and the Ameneiro crew hopes to achieve a great result.

“We have a very close team -says Ameneiro- with a very firm structure, which we have maintained and will continue to maintain without variations for the World Cup. The hard core is formed and now what interests us is to continue advancing in some aspect in which we can still give more of ourselves, such as sailing in stronger winds”.

Until then, Ameneiro’s men will continue to face off against the large J80 fleet that has been revealed in this latest edition of the Gestilar J80 Autumn League, one of the most competitive in recent years.

After five days and ten events held, and after first place for Alboroto (21 points), the winners’ podium was completed by Solventis Ribadeo led by Bruno Gago, César Conde, Sebastián Hermida and Manuel Javier Álvarez (33 points); and Bica de Chisco Catalán, Laureano and Jaime Wizner and Jesús González-Llanos (48 points). They hung the silver and bronze and received their trophies from the Sports deputy of the Pontevedra Provincial Council, Gorka Gómez; and the Councilor for Sports of Baiona, Andrea Pérez.

Among the teams that failed to sneak into the podium or Top 5 positions, the Marías of the Portuguese Manel Cunha deserves special recognition, for which his late entry into the competition (he joined the league months after it started ), weighed him down to ninth position, despite having quasi-perfect partials of 1-1-1-1-2-2 in the tests he played.

Thus, with the closure of the Gestilar J80 Autumn League, the Monte Real Club de Yates also closes its 2022 sports calendar, in which having brought the TP52 SUPER SERIES to Galicia, and celebrated the Championships of España de J80, cruisers and women’s sailing, were some of the most outstanding events, along with the traditional Conde de Gondomar, Príncipe de Asturias (and National Sailing Awards), Comunica and Repsol Trophy, Galician Championship of A Dos and the non-competitive Rías Baixas Route.

High tension in the Autumn League Gestilar J80

 

· Several unexpected conditions made the third day of the Monte Real one-design championship one of the most exciting so far

· After not having participated in the first two stages, the Marías of the Portuguese Manel Cunha joined the competition this Saturday, beating the rest of the fleet in the two tests held

· An off-line in the second test of the day caused Juan Carlos Ameneiro’s Alboroto to lose the leadership, which was relegated to second position behind Alberto García’s Solventis Ribadeo

· In addition to the arrival of Marías and the disqualifications for being out of line, the entry into play of a discard further adjusted the table of a league that announces excitement until the end

High tension in the Gestilar J80 Autumn League, with a very close table of results after the celebration, this Saturday in the Rías Baixas, of the penultimate round. Several unexpected conditions made the third of the five stages of the one-design championship organized by the Monte Real Club de Yates one of the most exciting to date.

One of the surprises of the day was given by the Marías of the Portuguese Manel Cunha, who after not having participated in the first two days, made a stellar entry into the competition, winning the two tests held this Saturday. The Portuguese crew was full of victories, but with its scarcity of races disputed it will be difficult to access the podium positions from the 18th position it currently occupies.

Less surprising was the climb to the top of the standings for Solventis Ribadeo, who after his great performance on the previous day with Malalo Bermúdez at the helm, this Saturday, with Alberto García leading the team, managed to maintain his good work and his streak in the results. He signed two second places that allow him to hang, temporarily, the gold of the competition.

Worse luck was experienced by one of the favorites to win the Gestilar J80 Autumn League, Juan Carlos Ameneiro’s Alboroto. The current champion of Spain in the class made an out of line and lost the lead he had had since the first day, being relegated to second position behind Solventis.

After first place for Solventis with 13 points and second for Alboroto with 15 points, Bica de Chisco Catalán appears in third position with 17 points, which once again changed its crew, this time with Laureano. and Jaime Wizner on board, who were also joined by Jesús González-Llanos.

Fernando Yáñez’s El Cansino, in fourth position, is the boat that has the best chance of fighting for one of the honorary positions in the two days remaining before the end of the league. With two third places in the tests held this Saturday and after eliminating his worst result thanks to discarding, he is left with 22 points, quite close to the first three classified and far from the rest.

Below, a margin of just 5 points, between 32 and 36 points, are grouped by Andrés Gómez’s Waikiki; the Pezoas by Nicolás Ángel Álvarez; the I3D Atlántico by Guillermo Blanco and the Mondo by Bernardo Macedo.
