· The nautical portal of Unidad Editorial has been awarded the Mariano Aguado Prize for Communication at the Terras Gauda National Sailing Awards

· Under the coordination of Héctor Atienza and Alberto Mas, it is one of the most complete information platforms on the sport of sailing and the nautical sector that currently exist in Spain

· With an average of around half a million unique monthly readers, Nauta 360 is one of the key references to keep informed of everything that happens in the world of sailing

The Nauta 360 Editorial Unit’s nautical portal has been honored this year with the Mariano Aguado Communication Award from the Terras Gauda National Sailing Awards for its great contribution in disseminating the main news produced on the sport of sailing and nautical sector in Spain.

The jury that awards the awards has wanted to recognize the trajectory of Nauta 360 since it released moorings in 2011 under the umbrella of Editorial Unit (El Mundo, Marca and Expansión) to become one of the key references of specialized information in Spain.

Its nearly half a million unique monthly readers, with a percentage of 80-20 national and international, make Nauta 360 one of the platforms with the largest audience of Spanish nautical portals, who access it through the digital portal of Expansion, where it has a fixed section.

At the controls of the portal are Héctor Atienza and Alberto Mas, who focus their work on two lines of information: the most relevant sports news (Copa América, Ocean Race, Vendée Globe, Copa del Rey, Olympic sailing…) and the great news of the nautical market (products, events, shows…), which they address with an editorial philosophy that seeks simplicity and clarity in the story.

Guidelines that have been maintained since the “Náutica” supplement of the newspaper El Mundo was created in 2004, a pioneer in the general media in Spain and the seed of what, after various evolutions, is now Nauta 360.

The journalist Alberto Mas, one of the portal’s coordinators, will be in charge of collecting the award at a gala to be held on September 7 at the Monte Real Club de Yates de Baiona.

· The current world champion in the women’s Hansa 303 class adds a new distinction to her extensive sports resume that includes several national, European and world titles

· The 47-year-old Mallorcan has been distinguished as the best sailor of the year after standing on the podium in 2018 of the Spanish Championship, the Spanish Cup, the European Championship and the World Cup

· On September 7, the sportswoman from the Puerto d’Andratx Sailing Club will collect one of the eight Terras Gauda National Sailing Awards that will be presented in Baiona

Majorcan sailor Violeta del Reino, world champion in the women’s Hansa 303 class, adds a new distinction to her extensive resume of sporting successes after being recognized as best sailor of the year by the Terras Gauda National Sailing Awards.

The jury that awards the prestigious awards wanted to reward her for the four podiums achieved in 2018, the year in which the gold medal of the Spanish Championship, the Spanish Cup, the European Championship held in Kiel (Germany) and the bronze of the world championship disputed in Sheboygan (USA).

Of Venezuelan origins, parents from Madrid and settled in Mallorca for years, Violeta suffered from an idiopathic cavus foot condition from a young age that later led to scoliosis problems in her back. At the age of 14 he had to undergo a triple arthrodesis, but his functional diversity never prevented him from setting numerous sporting challenges, which he has been facing since he started sailing at the age of 20.

His beginnings in sailing were lived in the Puerto de Andratx Sailing Club, for which he still sails today; and her good work took her to the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games, in which she achieved an Olympic diploma competing in Skud18 together with Sergi Roig.

In 2017 he achieved his first world championship in the Hansa 303 class, to which he also added gold in the Spanish Cup and silver in the European Championship. In this 2019 he has won the World Cup held in Cádiz, the Spanish Cup and the Spanish Championship. He also achieved third place in the European held in Austria.

The finishing touch to a spectacular season will be on September 7 at eight in the afternoon in Baiona when she collects the Terras Gauda National Sailing Award for the best sailor.

In the last 8 international competitions in which they participated, the Wizner-Ameneiro tandem won 7 medals: three gold at the 2018 Fremantle (Australia) World Championship, at the 2018 Sesimbra (Portugal) European Championship and at the Vilamoura World Championship (Portugal) 2019; one silver at the European Championships in Athens 2017 and three bronzes at Lago di Garda (Italy) 2017, Newport (USA) 2018 and Vilagarcía 2019. A brilliant record in which only the podium of the youth world championship held in Poland escaped them, in which they were fifth.

In just 12 days, on September 7, the athletes from the Vigo nautical team and the Galician team, awarded scholarships at the Galician Center for High Performance in Pontevedra, will collect in Baiona the award that distinguishes them as the best youth team of the year.

They won the World Cup held in Massachusetts (USA) and the European Championship held in Vigo in the Corinthian division, for non-professional crews; remaining sixth and third respectively in the general classification.

After hearing the news, the young skipper was very pleased with the recognition he wanted to dedicate to the Freire family, without whom, Bugallo assured, the Marnatura project would not be possible. On September 7th they will add a new achievement in their career, that of having won the Terras Gauda National Sailing Award for the monodesign of the year for the achievement of the continental and world titles.

The jury that awards the Terras Gauda National Sailing Awards has decided to distinguish it with the Best Olympic Team award for being one of the most outstanding crews in Spanish Olympic sailing.

In 2016 both represented Spain in the 49er category of the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, although they did not manage to get on the podium; and his team is one of the most promising assets for the upcoming Tokyo 2020 Olympics, an aspiration they are already working on.

With their sights and efforts focused on the Japanese event, Botín and Marra continue chaining awards and distinctions. One of the most outstanding was achieved in 2018 in Gdynia (Poland), when they climbed to the top of the 49er European podium. It was the second time that they managed to hang the gold from a European after the victory achieved in 2016.

In this 2019 they recorded their names again in the honor roll of the European held in the English city of Weymouth, although they had to settle for the bronze medal.

Santander Diego Botín, 25 years old; and Sonense Iago López Marra, born in Portosín (Galicia) in 1990; They achieved their first medal together in 2012 at the Palamós Christmas Race (Girona), in which they competed together. Two years later, in 2014, they met again and began to dream of the Olympics, a project that, after a year and a half of work, would bear its first fruits in 2016, with their participation in the Rio de Janeiro Olympics, in which they were ninth.

Currently, from their seventh place in the 49er world ranking, they train with the national 49er coach Pepe Lis and compete to qualify Spain for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. They will try to make it in the World Cup in New Zealand and if they make it, they will still have to earn to be the ones competing in the games.

Both have been linked to sailing all their lives in different ways. Diego’s ties to sailing come from his father Gonzalo, a prize-winning shipbuilder; and his uncle Marcelino, a prominent naval designer. He started sailing at the age of 7 encouraged by his father and managed to be runner-up in the Optimist Europe, l’Equipe European Champion, and 49er Junior World Champion with Pablo Turrado.

Also from a very young age Iago began to become familiar with sailing, a qualified naval engineer. He did it through the Real Club Náutico de Portosín, where he was born, where he sailed in Optimist, 420, 470 and finally 49er. He did not forget either the great lengths, in which he competed in different crews. He is currently one of the most prominent Galician sailors on the national scene.

The General Secretary for Sport, José Ramón Lete Lasa, has just signed with the president of the Monte Real Yacht Club, José Luis Álvarez, the sponsorship contract by which the Xunta contributes a total of 9,000 euros to the entity for the activities of the Sailing School adapted for people with physical and mental disabilities.

After signing the agreement, both Lete and Álvarez assured that accessibility and inclusion must be priorities in sports practice, and that is why the Xunta and Monte Real join forces to fight for a sport “plural, diverse, without gender or age, for everyone, enriching society, transmitter of values, trainer, equalizer and engine of social change”, assured Lete Lasa.

“To achieve this sport we have to work day by day and join forces with all public administrations, Galician companies and society in general” , said the Galician president.

The General Secretary for Sport of the Xunta de Galicia described Monte Real as “an unbeatable partner” to achieve these objectives since -he recalled- the elimination of a large part of the club’s architectural barriers and the acquisition of adapted boats allowed it to become, in 2014, the only Spanish yacht club to receive a special distinction from the Association of Education Environmental and Consumer (ADEAC) for its work of social integration.

The MRCYB adapted Sailing School works throughout the calendar year and has been working continuously since 2012, being the only entity that carries out a program of these characteristics in the north of Spain.

The 44th Count of Gondomar – Banco Sabadell Trophy , disputed over the last four days in Galicia, came down this Sunday with the celebration of a test that turned out to be decisive and the awarding of prizes to the winners of the competition.

The regatta committee had scheduled two windward-leeward sleeves to close the trophy but the weather, which was the protagonist during the first two days, once again made itself felt. The wind was slow to appear at the Cíes anchorage, the scene of the competition, and the sailboats had to keep floating for two hours before being able to launch themselves again for the championship.

In dispute, a route between buoys of just over four miles for the big boats and a little less for the smaller ones and one designs, which the crews had to face with a west wind of about 6 knots on average, which never passed of the 8 It was a complicated test, very technical, with difficulties to find the best tacks and even to advance astern with the tide going out.

With very different characteristics from the two coastal races that opened this edition of the Conde de Gondomar, the skippers’ skill in advancing as quickly as possible in the barlosotas was decisive when it came to defining the final podiums, which reaffirmed the bets of many but which also left some last minute surprises.

STORAX ORC 1-2-3

In the Storax ORC 1-2-3 class, the Yess Too of the Monte Real Club de Yates, armed and skippered by the Portuguese Rui Ramada, achieved a triple victory in the competition, taking the award to the winner of the Carrumeiro in real time, the first prize of his class and the overall winner, which he received from the general manager of SabadellGallego, Pablo Junceda.

This is the second victory at the Conde de Gondomar that the Portuguese owner has achieved since he began to participate in the competition ten years ago. In 2014 he achieved victory with the Fifty, one of the boats that gave Ramada the most satisfaction, with which, among other trophies, he won the Prince of Asturias on several occasions.

The second and third place of the Conde 2019 went to two of the most successful boats in the history of the competition, both from the Real Club Náutico de Vigo: the Aceites Abril of the Pérez Canal brothers, who finally could not sign their fourth consecutive victory; and José Luis Freire’s Pairo 8, the best in this Sunday’s test.

PSA RETAIL ORC 4-5

In the Psa Retail ORC 4-5 competition, the Balea Dous of Luis Pérez, of the Real Club Náutico de Rodeira, managed to get rid of the thorn of the previous edition, in which he came second, climbing this Sunday to the top of the podium .

La Burla Negra by Juan José Martínez, from the Club Náutico Castrelo de Miño; and Luis García Trigo’s Unus, with a pendant from the Monte Real Club de Yates, were the winners of the silver and bronze medals in the competition.

RÍAS BAIXAS J80

In the Rías Baixas J80 class, the great performance of Santiago Estévez’s Cunichán in the last race in the competition, in which he was the winner, allowed them to climb positions to the first position, causing Juan Luis Tuero’s Luna Nueva to fall.

The Spaniard, who had been the leader since the beginning of the forty-fourth edition of the Conde de Gondomar, fell to second place and the Maija of José Luis Pérez, also from Monte Real Club de Yates, was in third place.

MARTIN MILLER FIGARO

In the Martin Miller Figaro class, Bouvento and Ladeira were the two boats that maintained the strongest bets throughout the competition in the game for the final victory, which ended up being won by Ladeira, skippered by Vice-Commodore of Monte Real, Genoveva Pereiro. .

Fernando Rey’s Bouvento came second and Víctor Fernández’s Tutatis, the third boat in discord since Thursday, failed to rise from the third position that it held during the first two days and in which it reaffirmed itself in the final stage.

At the awards ceremony held this afternoon in Baiona, which put an end to the competition, the general manager of SabadellGallego, Pablo Junceda; the mayor of Baiona, Carlos Gomez; the delegate of the Xunta de Galicia in Vigo, Corina Porro; the deputies of the Provincial Council of Pontevedra, Iria Lamas and Raquel Giráldez; the director of private banking and the director of professional groups at Banco Sabadell, José Celada and Manuel Prol; the manager of PSA Retail Vigo, Daniel Martín; and the vice president of the Monte Real Yacht Club, Alejandro Retolaza.

THE NEXT APPOINTMENT: THE 34TH PRINCE OF ASTURIAS TROPHY

The Count of Gondomar serves as a prologue to another of the historic regattas of the Monte Real Yacht Club, the Príncipe de Asturias Trophy, which in 2019 celebrates its thirty-fourth edition and will be held at the beginning of September, on the 6th, 7th and 8th. .
