The largest boats, from classes 1 and 2, competed on Thursday in the Rías Baixas Tourism Stage, the longest of the entire competition, with a climb to Carrumeiro Chico, on the Costa da Morte. Rui Ramada’s Fifty, and a champion of the Baiona club, completed the route in 14 hours and 16 minutes and managed to win the stage and first place overall.
The Aceites Abril, owned by Luis and Jorge Pérez Canal, from the Real Club Náutico de Vigo, took 3 seconds longer to arrive than the Portuguese, and came second. Siradella, from the Real Club Náutico de Portosín, was in third position, tied on points with Abril. Led by César Álvarez and Pachicho Gude, the crew made a magnificent climb to Carrumeiro, being the second to turn it.

The XXXIX Conde de Gondomar Trophy continued this Friday with the Vitaldent Stage for classes 3 and 4, including the J80. They made a coastal tour with passes through Carallones, Subrido, Bondaña, La Negra and the Islet of Viños. Just over 23 miles that were covered in just over four hours, thanks to the intensity of the wind, which blew with an average of 15 knots, reaching gusts of 18 at times.
