Baiona, May 24, 2015.- Andrés Álvarez, 18, from Buenos Aires, and Pablo García, 15, from Pontevedra, won the 420 class Galicia Cup this weekend in Baiona, organized by the Monte Real Yacht Club with the sponsorship of Baitra Naval Accessories. The young sailors from the Club de Mar de Aguete had no rival in the two days that the championship lasted and finally won the more than deserved title.
On the first day of testing, Álvarez and García managed to win the three heats disputed and move away from their competitors in the standings. This Sunday they showed again what they are capable of crossing the finish line first in two of the three races held.
After winning silver in the national youth class and gold in the Galicia Cup, those from Aguete now have hard months of training ahead of them to give their best in the European Championship to be held this summer in the Bulgarian town de Bourghas and in the 2015 ISAF World Championship, which will take place next December in Malaysia.
After them, in the Baitra Trophy, the crews formed by Marcos Cordeiro and Simón Porzio, from the Real Club Náutico de Vigo, and Marcos Fernández and Pedro García, from the Real Club Náutico de Portosín, were in second and third position.
The awards ceremony was held at the end of the competition at the facilities of the Monte Real Club de Yates. Courtesy of Baitra, the sponsoring company of the event, and on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Baion club, the first three classified took a cast replica of the Crab Battery, the walled enclosure where the Monte Real is located, as a trophy. In addition, the winners were awarded with nautical material from Jesús Betanzos Naval Effects, Magic Marine and sunglasses from Óptica Real.
The next appointments with the competitions of the Monte Real Club de Yates are the Galician Solo and Two-handed Championship, which will be held on the weekend of June 13 and 14, and the Spanish Championship of the 2.4mR Class of adapted sailing, on June 19, 20 and 21.
