Repsol Trophy 2015
01-03-2015
The Monte Real Club de Yates will hold its traditional spring regatta over the first of May, which in 2015 celebrates its thirty-eighth edition sponsored by Repsol and counting, once again, with the collaboration of the Real Club Náutico de Sanxenxo and the Nauta Sanxenxo marina.
The Repsol Trophy will be held on May 1, 2 and 3 . The participating crews, arriving from different parts of Galicia, Madrid and Portugal, must complete two crossing regattas through the Vigo and Pontevedra estuaries, and various technical tests at the Cies Islands anchorage.
During the May Day holiday, the boats will travel the distance that separates Baiona from Sanxenxo, and the next day, the reverse route. On both days the start will be given at one in the afternoon, and on Friday there will be a prize-giving ceremony for the stage winners at the Real Club Náutico de Sanxenxo.
On Sunday the 3rd, the victory of the trophy will be decided starting at noon with several routes between windward-leeward buoys, at the anchorage of the Cíes Islands, and in the afternoon, at five o’clock, the awards ceremony will be held at the facilities of the Mount Royal Yacht Club.
All those who want to follow the navigation of the boats participating in the Repsol Trophy can do so from the surroundings of the bay of Baiona, from the Costa de la Vela and Cabo Udra, on the Morrazo peninsula, and from the beaches closest to Sanxenxo.
