Two more crews accompany us on the trip, Irene and Paula from the Punta Lagoa Sailing School and Luis Bugallo with Adán as a crew member.

Good luck to all and especially to our sailors.

CHEER UP !!!

Officials from the Monte Real Yacht Club of Bayonne (MRCYB) and Fundación Repsol presented the new boats of the Adapted Sailing School on Monday, an initiative whose main objective is to bring this sport closer to people with disabilities to promote their social integration.

They are accessible boats that allow people with disabilities to enjoy the sea and the sport of sailing under equal conditions. They have been designed by the naval architect from Ferrol, Javier González Cela, and acquired thanks to the collaboration of Fundación Repsol.

They are stable, safe and easy-to-handle boats, of the GOS 16 model. They are 5 meters long and one meter wide. The crew go on ergonomic seats from which they have full access to fully control the boat. This allows them both to walk and learn, as well as to compete.

The MRCYB Sailing School

The Adapted Sailing School of the Monte Real Yacht Club of Bayonne was born in 2012 with the aim of bringing people with disabilities closer to the world of sailing, a sport with countless benefits, both physical, mental and sensory.

Since its launch, several associations of people with disabilities in the region have carried out activities in the club. They are the Encaixamos del Val Miñor Association, the students of the Juan María de Nigrán Center and the Avelaíña de Gondomar group.

Currently, the Monte Real Yacht Club of Bayonne organizes outings to the sea with people with disabilities every 15 days, and seeks new support to increase the number of participants and activities in the future.

Next Monday, April 7, 2014, the heads of Fundación Repsol and the Monte Real Yacht Club of Bayonne will present the sailboats of the MRCYB Adapted Sailing School, an initiative whose main objective is to promote the practice of sports as a tool for integration and bring the sport of sailing closer to people with disabilities.

They intervene:

Mr. Rafael Olmedo Limeses · President of the Mount Royal Yacht Club of Bayonne

Mr. Gonzalo Vázquez Deputy Director of Social and Cultural Projects at F. Repsol

Mr. Jesús Vázquez Almuiña · Mayor of Baiona

Mixed results in the last qualifying where the good results of two of our sailors from the Optimist team have stood out above all.

Rosalía Martínez and Sandra Trigo have disputed a magnificent regatta in which in the end they have managed to classify tenth and fourteenth respectively, and thus be able to ascend to the GOLD group.

This shows that the line of work of their coaches Samuel Montouto and David Fontán is correct and that little by little it will bear fruit.

Congratulations to all and keep improving.

Another Thursday we have had the boys and girls of the Encaixamos Val Miñor Association. On this occasion, we have trained with more technical routes with training with buoys.

A very positive evolution is noted in the control of the boats and we highlight above all the enthusiasm and desire of the boys and girls.
