A fellowship meal on Thursday the 16th and a gala dinner on Saturday the 18th marked the beginning and end of an event in which, in different talks and conferences, issues related, mainly, to the promotion of nautical sports from different perspectives were addressed. .
Although other current topics such as the Copa América in Barcelona or the Olympic Games in Paris were also discussed, attendees from all over the world focused their interventions on issues related to the improvements to be included by the clubs to advance their sustainability and in initiatives to be launched to make the sport of sailing more attractive.
The tenth edition of the ICOYC European and South American Conference was held in Saltsjobaden (Sweden)
El Monte Real, although on this occasion it was not an official speaker, presented in Sweden some of the actions framed in its sustainability project, such as the design and construction of an electric travelift, which allows boats of up to 25 tons to be lifted and taken out of the water to take them to their stranding point using only electricity.
Nowadays, a good part of the cranes used in Spain to beach ships operate with diesel engines and hydraulic systems, with the damage to the environment that this entails and the risks of environmental pollution that it entails. With the creation of this electric crane, the MRCYB avoided these damages and moved towards a more sustainable future.
The commodore of Monte Real, Ignacio Sánchez Otaegui, also spoke in Sweden about the actions related to water, waste management, energy consumption and security in the facilities that the club has implemented over the years and that have allowed it to display, uninterruptedly, the blue flag since 1988.
Another of the projects presented to the ICOYC members was the solar boat of the University of Vigo with which the club collaborates. An initiative born from the hand of a group of students from the School of Telecommunications Engineering guided by the founder of the company Marine Instruments and director of Monte Real, Francisco Pino. It is a boat with foils that is powered by photovoltaic cells.
These are three of the many steps taken by the MRCYB to be, over the years, an increasingly sustainable club. One of the latest has been the use of a zero-emission renewable fuel in the support boats of its most crowded competitions, with which, thanks to the collaboration of Repsol, it managed to reduce the environmental footprint of the regattas.
The KSSS and MRCYB commodore
All this and much more was discussed at the tenth edition of the ICOYC (International Council of Yacht Clubs) conference, an association that brings together the 44 main yacht clubs in the world.
It includes, among others, the San Diego Yacht Club (USA), the Clube Naval de Cascais (Portugal), the Yacht Club de Monaco, the Societe Nautique de Marseille (France), the Royal Yhames Yacht Club (London), the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron (New Zealand), the Royal Natal Yacht Club (South Africa) or the Royal Canadian Yacht Club (Canada).

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.

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.

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.

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).

This Saturday one of the most disputed editions of the Baitra J80 Winter League came to an end in the Vigo estuary, which year after year is organized by Monte Real Club de Yates with the sponsorship of Baitra Accesorios Navales for the exclusive fleet of 8-meter one-design boats.
After six days and a total of seven tests held, the Kotablue Fibra Coruña 14/18, from the Real Club Náutico de A Coruña, led by the Finn champion Miguel Fernández Vasco, won the competition, registering his name for the first time in the honor roll of the winter league, with 15 points resulting from partial scores of 1-3-1-4-5-1.
It was not an easy victory for the Herculean team, which fought tooth and nail for the laurels. On the third day of testing, the crew made up of several juniors from the A Coruña Sailing School (Esteban Martínez de la Colina, Juan Maciñeira and Carmen Martínez de la Colina), managed to rise from tenth to third place; and in the penultimate stage he made the leap to the first, unseating Alboroto, champion of Spain, from the lead.
He maintained that first place without difficulty this last Saturday of competition, in which the lack of wind prevented any test from completing more than the seven that had been held in previous days, so the classification was identical to that of the penultimate stage .
“It is a victory that makes me very happy,” declared Fernández Vasco at the end of the league- because it has been very well worked and because all the crew members who have competed with me during these months are students from the A Coruña sailing school, Optimist, Laser and 420, which shows the potential of these guys and the firm commitment that our club is doing for light sailing”. “Our objective now is to continue training hard to present ourselves strongly in the Príncipe de Asturias Trophy and the J80 World Championship next September in Baiona”, concluded.

The silver medal went to the Rampage of Juan Carlos Ameneiro, Javier Aguado, Juan Lago, Javier Lago and Amador Riveiro. The current champion of Spain in the class, after remaining in the lead until the penultimate day, was unable to win the final, but he was able to win second place, since he repeated the previous edition. He finished just one point behind Fibra Coruña, with 16 points (1-3-1-4-5-2).

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.

Back on land, the skipper and leader of the Deep Blue 2.1, Vicente Cid, was enthusiastic about the success achieved in the regatta and the good work of his crew. “The soul of Deep Blue 2.1 is its team and without them this victory would not have been possible,” he said. We have been sailing together for many years, the understanding is complete and our goal is to continue adding victories. Last year we took the Count, the Rias and the Prince, and in this 2023 we do not want to achieve less “.
In the ORC 5 class, where the first two races had left very tight results at the top of the table, the regatta was also resolved in a very tight way. It ended with the final victory of Cinco Islas Albariño, led by Iñaki Carbajo (CN Beluso), tied on 8 points with second place, Nahela led by Víctor Manuel Álvarez (CD Alagua), and just half a point away from third place, Squid II by Francisco Lusquiños (CN Portonovo).
In the A2 class, the Salaño Dos of Jacobo Vecino and Brenda Maure (RCN Vigo), was the only boat together with the Deep Blue that prevailed in each and every one of the races disputed. He finished with three partial gold medals and the laurels of the spring trophy. The silver went to the Aquilón of Roberto Telle and Genoveva Pereiro (MRCYB) and the bronze to the Asante Sana of Juan Carlos Trabazos and Joaquín Dasilva (LM Bouzas).
The J80 class reached the final day led by Javier de la Gándara’s Okofen, tied on points with Javier Aguado’s Alboroto. On the day’s program, like the ORCs, two trapeze-format tests in which no one could fail if they wanted to take the laurels. Finally, a first and a second in the sleeves tipped the balance in favor of Okofen, allowing him to climb to the top of the podium. El Alboroto was weighed down to third position by a ninth place that he signed in one of the tests and Manel Cunha’s Marías passed him, taking silver.
Although they competed within the ORC-4 class, the Figaros del Monte Real also had their own category in the awards ceremony of this forty-fifth edition of the Spring Regatta. The winners of this edition were Paula Rey’s Tutatis, Elena Raga’s Ladeira and Julia Correa’s Erizana. El Tutatis also won the prize for the best female crew in the competition.
The Spanish Sportboat Championship of the North Zone was finally deserted since no crew wanted to compete for the national title that the Royal Spanish Sailing Federation put into play within the framework of the Repsol Trophy.
The next appointment with the regattas of the Monte Real Club de Yates will be on June 10 with the Galician A Dos Championship, which will once again be the MRW Trophy and will include the Rafael Olmedo Memorial, in homage to the historic president of the Baionese club. It is the twelfth consecutive year that the Baiones club organizes this regional event by delegation of the Royal Galician Sailing Federation.

SPECIAL AWARD TO THE BEST FEMALE CREW OF THE TROPHY
· 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.
In the J80 real-time competition, the Okofen was first across the finish line and this stage win allowed him to jump from third to first position. 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, which closed Sunday with a seafood dinner at the Monte Real Club de Yates, will come to an end this Monday, the May 1 holiday, with the last two races of the competition: two routes in the shape of a trapezoid that the entire fleet will compete in the anchorage of the Cíes Islands. In the afternoon, around half past six, the awards ceremony will be held, attended by Repsol’s Head of Marine and Fisheries, Inés González Megido; the mayor of Baiona, Carlos Gómez; the General Secretary for Sport of the Xunta de Galicia, José Ramón Lete Lasa; and the vice president of the MRCYB, Alejandro Retolaza.

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.

This Wednesday, a new edition of the classic Monte Real Club de Yates Spring Regatta was officially presented in Baiona, which this year celebrates its forty-fifth edition. It is also the twenty-third that has been held as a Repsol Trophy, thanks to the collaboration of the energy company with the Bayonés club. And this year, as a novelty, it includes, by delegation of the Royal Spanish Sailing Federation, the celebration of one of the appointments of the Spanish Sportboat Championship, the one corresponding to the northern zone.
With several days to go before the registration period closes, the list of entries clearly shows the interest of the different fleets from northern Spain and Portugal to participate in this historic event, in which the organization expects more than 300 to participate. sailors. Right now there have already been more than fifty boats registered and it is more than likely that the number will continue to increase until the weekend.
Saturday will be the first day of competition with a coastal route that will start from the Bay of Baiona and will continue to the vicinity of Combarro, where the crews will spend the night waiting to return to Baiona on Sunday. This reverse route of the Sunday day, between Combarro and Baiona, will be the second scoring test of the trophy, which will only have the two technical tests scheduled for Monday. On May 1st the different fleets (ORC, J80, Figaros) will meet at the anchorage of the Cíes Islands. There, in front of the majestic archipelago, the race committee will give the teams two more options to score points in the classification, with two tests that could be, depending on the weather conditions, either the trapeze or poles type.
If the organization’s forecasts are met and the weather offers good conditions, all the races will begin around noon and end throughout the afternoon, with a tasting and leisure time for the sailors on Saturday at the Marina de Combarro and on Sunday and Monday at the Monte Real Club de Yates, where the awards ceremony for the winners of this edition will also be held on the last day.

One of these objectives is to continue reducing, more and more, the environmental footprint of the club’s facilities and competitions, and in this sense, Repsol’s Head of Marine and Fishing, Inés González Megido, announced the premiere, in this regatta, of a renewable fuel with zero net emissions for support vessels. “Repsol is proud to contribute one more year to this sporting event and to do it, furthermore, in this way, reducing the CO2 footprint thanks to our renewable fuel produced from waste” .
The commodore of the club, Ignacio Sánchez Otaegui, also participated in the presentation of this new edition of the Repsol Trophy, who recalled that anyone who wants to can follow the two initial tests, the coastal ones on Saturday and Sunday, over the Internet, via mobile, tablet or computer, from the Monte Real Club de Yates website.

The deputy for Sports of the Pontevedra Provincial Council, Gorka Gómez, highlighted the relevance of a competition with 45 years of history and a club that, according to him, is a national benchmark for the sport of sailing. The provincial sports manager also thanked the Monte Real Club de Yates on behalf of the Provincial Council for promoting the Rías Baixas as a key tourist destination in Galicia with its initiatives.
The person in charge of closing the press conference held at the Monte Real Club de Yates was the mayor of Baiona, Carlos Gómez, who wished the club all the best in this kick-off of the heavy sailing season. “Betting on Monte Real is betting on Baiona and our neighbors, and that is why we will always be by the club’s side, supporting all its events, from which our town also benefits.”

The Monte Real Club de Yates successfully launched its 2023 cruise season this Saturday with the celebration of the CdeC – Amura Trophy, which brought together more than fifty sailboats from the main Galician yacht clubs in the Rías Baixas.
The competition took place on a double stage, along the Pontevedra and Vigo estuaries, with departures from the vicinity of the Marina Combarro and the Real Club Náutico de Vigo, which collaborated with the Bayonés club in the sporting event.
The smallest fleet, the one that left Combarro, was also the earliest. Seven boats started five minutes after noon with conditions that coincided with the reports provided by the committee. A south-westerly wind above ten knots that made it easier for them to push towards Baiona.
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. They kept up a very interesting one-on-one until the end, but the time compensation gave Ronáutica Marinas, led by Jorge Carneiro (CN San Telmo), the final victory. Nahela finished second and the Cinco Islas Albariño of Iñaki Carbajo (CN Beluso) closed the podium in third position.
The fleet that departed from Combarro covered a total of 23 miles and the route for the boats that departed from Vigo, which heard the departure horn just after two in the afternoon with 17 knots from the southeast, was 12 miles.
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.
Thus, the ORC 1-2-3 class winners’ podium was configured, one of the five that entered the competition on the Vigo-Baiona route. In ORC 4, the steps of the podium were covered by the Deep Blue 2.1 of Vicente Cid (RCN Vigo), who achieved gold; La Burla Negra by Juan José Martínez (CN Castrelo de Miño), who won the silver; and the bronze remained in Baiona thanks to the good performance of Jean Claude Sarrade’s Fend la Bise.
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).
The J80 monotypes, the largest fleet (23 units) and unrelated to time compensation, competed in real time and their dispute ended with Alboroto at the top of the podium. A new victory for one of the boats that is postulated as favorites of the Galician fleet for the J80 world championship.
The crew, led by Juan Carlos Ameneiro, surpassed his clubmate, Fernando Yáñez, aboard the Cansino; and Kotablue Fibra Coruña 14/18 led by Esteban Martínez de la Escalera, from RCN A Coruña.
The other one-design fleet, the Figaros, which competed within the ORC-4 category, also had its own classification, which was configured with Walter Pedro Sequeiros’ Bouvento in first position and Pilar Cid’s Tutatis in second.
The latter, the Tutatis, took the prize for the best female crew, an award that the Monte Real Club de Yates has established in practically all its competitions within the framework of its Women’s Sailing program, with which it intends to increase the presence of women in the regattas that are held in Galicia.
Once the competition was resolved and the final classifications published, the facilities of the Bayonés club hosted the awards ceremony for the winners, an act that was presided over by the General Director of the CdeC Group and sponsor of the event, Carlos Calo; the mayor of Baiona, Carlos Gómez; and the vice president of the MRCYB, Alejandro Retolaza.
After saying goodbye to this first big date with the cruisers, at Monte Real they already have everything ready for their next regatta, which arrives in just a few days. The forty-fifth edition of its classic Spring Regatta, which once again is the Repsol Trophy, will be held next weekend, coinciding with the May Day holiday.

More than 50 sailboats (56 registered at this time) will participate this Saturday in the CdeC – Amura Trophy, with which the Monte Real Club de Yates opens its 2023 cruise season. A large influx of crews for a competition that will have a double aspect, with two different departures for the same finish.
The smallest fleet will depart from Combarro, made up of 8 boats belonging to different yacht clubs such as Vilagarcía, Aguete, San Telmo, Beluso, Boiro, Tui, Combarro and Baiona. They will have about 22 miles to go until they finish.
The rest of the sailboats, mainly from more southern clubs such as Vigo, Canido, Baiona, Punta Lagoa, Bouzas, Rodeira or Castrelo de Miño, will depart from Vigo, divided into different classes. There will be several ORC categories, a special A Two for the smallest crews, made up of only two people; and one more for the J80, which with 22 registered, make up the fleet with the greatest presence in the trophy. For all of them, the route will be somewhat shorter, about 15 miles.
Although the typical spring variations could cause last-minute changes in the weather, everything indicates that the conditions will be very good for navigation, with southerly winds that will almost certainly always blow above 10 knots, reaching to reach gusts of up to 20 knots at times. There will be, yes, many clouds and some rain.
This first Monte Real cruise ship regatta, sponsored by the CdeC Group and Amura, will end at seven in the evening at the facilities of the Baiones club with the awards ceremony for the winners.
· The estuaries of Pontevedra and Vigo and the bay of Baiona will be the scene of the regattas included in the CdeC Trophy that will be held next Saturday
· The tests, in which the organization expects fifty boats to participate, inaugurate the ORC calendar of the Monte Real Club de Yates
· The Trophy will include two coastal regattas between Combarro and Baiona starting at noon and between Vigo and Baiona starting at two in the afternoon
The estuaries of Pontevedra and Vigo and the Bay of Baiona will be the scene, next Saturday, of the CdeC Trophy, with which the Monte Real Club de Yates inaugurates its regatta calendar for ORC boats. After having put into play the Winter League for the J80 one-designs during the first months of the year, the arrival of spring means the opening of the trophies to more classes of boats.
The great regattas return to Baiona and they do so, in this first call, spreading out through the southernmost Galician estuaries, those of Pontevedra and Vigo, with two different coastal regattas. One, the earliest, will depart at noon from Combarro, with a travel forecast of about 22 nautical miles. The other, leaving from the vicinity of the port of Vigo, will begin at two in the afternoon, and will involve a route of approximately 15 miles.
And although the routes will be different at the beginning, they were designed so that the last few miles, already entering the bay of Baiona, where the arrival will be located, can be done together by a large part of the fleet, sharing obligatory crossing points such as the beacon from La Negra or Carallones, this being the last one before the end.
As of today, the list of entries already exceeds twenty and from the organization, the sports director of Monte Real, Roy Alonso, hopes to have fifty boats. Among the already confirmed participants will be some of the winners of the previous edition, who will try to revalidate their victory. In 2022 the laurels were won by Julio Rodríguez’s Magical (ORC 1-2-3 Class), Vicente Cid’s Deep Blue 2.1 (ORC 4-5-6 Class), Jacobo Vecino’s Salaño 2 and Brenda Maure (A2 Class). ), Carlos García’s Maracaná (ORC Combarro Class) and Alboroto skippered by Javier Aguado (J80 Class).
The Real Club Náutico de Vigo and the Monte Real Club de Yates will almost certainly be the clubs with the greatest presence of boats at the starting line, but crews from many other clubs have already been confirmed. In the water competing will be La Burla Negra from Castrelo de Miño, the Ski from the Liceo Marítimo de Bouzas, the Ronáuticas Marinas from the Club Náutico San Telmo (Tui), the Narval from the Club Náutico Vilagarcía, or the Cinco Islas Albariño from the Club Náutico de Beluso (Bueu), the Petrilla Cáctus Digital of the Club Náutico de Portonovo or the Orlando of the Ro Yacht Club (Combarro), among others.
For all of them, except for the J80 that will compete in real time, the final classification will be based on compensated times. There will be winners of the different classes for the two regattas put into play: Combarro-Baiona and Vigo-Baiona, and a special award for the best female crew in the Figaro class, with which Monte Real continues to try to promote a greater presence of women in the club’s regattas. The awards ceremony, which will conclude the CdeC Trophy, will be held at seven in the afternoon at the Monte Real Club de Yates facilities and will be attended, among other authorities, by the CEO of the CdeC Group, Carlos Calo, sponsor of the event.
The Adapted Sailing School of the Monte Real Club de Yates has just received a new recognition for its work. The Baiona council awarded him a special mention at its VIII Sports Gala, held this weekend in the fishing village.

The School, launched more than a decade ago, has as its main objective to offer people with functional diversity the possibility of practicing sailing on equal terms.
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.

After staying at the top of the standings since the start of the competition, the current Spanish J80 champion, Juan Carlos Ameneiro’s Alboroto, from Monte Real Club de Yates, lost the lead this Sunday at the hands of Fibra Coruña led by Miguel Fernández Vasco , of the Royal Nautical Club of A Coruña.
An out of line of the Alboroto in the penultimate test played, together with the entry into play of a discard, which allowed the crews to eliminate their worst result from the classification, were the key elements of this and other changes that occurred in the table .
Despite the ups and downs of this last day, there are five boats that continue to stand out above the rest of the fleet in the Monte Real one-design group. They are two Portuguese, Manel Cunha’s Marías and Joaquim Moreira’s 4 Jotas; and the three Spaniards, Juan Carlos Ameneiro’s Alboroto, Malalo Bermúdez’s Solventis and Miguel Fernández Vasco’s Fibra Coruña.
They all fought again, this Sunday, the three tests disputed. And it is that after the disappointment experienced on Saturday with the weather, which did not allow the celebration of the day, this Sunday the conditions were adequate and the J80 went out with more desire than ever to the water.
The race committee made a first attempt to get closer to the Cíes Islands course to place the route there, but there was a lot of swell and a lot of waves, and finally they decided to hold the tests inside the Bay of Baiona.
In that location, with a slightly rough sea but with a fairly stable northwesterly wind, which kept blowing between 10 and 12 knots, it was possible to start three windward-leeward type tasks, since the area does not allow, for its dimensions, a suitable trapezoidal design.

The first race featured 4 Jotas, Marías, Solventis, Alboroto and Bica de Chisco Catalán, skippered on this occasion by Luis Pérez Canal. Everyone maintained their options for a good part of the tour, but the final victory went to Marías.
In the second sleeve of the day, in which the wind dropped somewhat in intensity and the course was sniped to make it somewhat shorter, there were several out of lines. The most outstanding, for what they implied for the final classification, were those of Alboroto, Solventis and Marías, who were playing for the top positions in the table and with this penalty they were in danger of losing them.
The test, the sixth of the competition, also caused a discard to come into play, which made things even more exciting for the last round of the day, the third, in which the fiercest fight was staged by Alboroto de Ameneiro and the Fibra Coruña of Fernández Vasco.
The positions of honor were at stake, they knew it, and they went for it all, staying very close to each other throughout the journey. Finally, those from A Coruña managed to cross the finish line first and jump from third to first position, placing themselves as leaders of the competition with 15 points.

Just one point away, with 16, the Rampage appears with the provisional silver; and Solventis, with 22, holds the bronze. The Portuguese Marías and 4 Jotas close the Top 5, with 30 and 37 points respectively.
Thus, after having crossed off the calendar the first five days (of which only three could be navigated) of the Baitra J80 Winter League, the competition only has the final stage left, for which we will have to wait until the end of May. It will be on the 27th when the last three tests of the winter league will be put into play, conditions permitting, and in which the prizes will be awarded to the winners.

Before that, the Monte Real Club de Yates will put its first two trophies of the season on the line, the CdeC Trophy, on April 22; and the Repsol Trophy, on April 29 and 30 and May 1.
In both competitions, for which the Notice of Regatta has already been published and the registration period is open, the J80s will once again have their own category in which to compete in real time and continue preparing for the World Championship next September.

This third round of the 8-meter one-design group was held in Baiona Bay to avoid the somewhat harsher conditions in the vicinity of Cíes.
Despite everything, the conditions were very good, and the gusty wind from the south that blew throughout the afternoon always remained above 12 knots, with an average of 14, even reaching 20 per moment.
