The forty-second edition of the traditional Spring Regatta of the Monte Real Club de Yates ended with great success in participation and the greatest rivalry on the water, which once again became the Repsol Trophy thanks to the sponsorship of the energy company.
After three days of competition, with two coastal regattas and three windward-leeward routes disputed, the high quality of the participating fleet left a fairly tight final classification in some classes, although there were certain crews who knew how to solve better and managed to stand out from the rest.
One of them was clearly that of Aceites Abril , with the brothers Luis and Jorge Pérez Canal at the helm. After seeing the title in danger on the second day, in which Bosch overtook them, this Sunday they managed to sentence the competition masterfully solving the last race in dispute and pocketing all the titles they could aspire to.
Ourenses finished the Repsol Trophy as the best in their class, ORC 1, and also the best in the joint classification of ORC 1 and 2. The crew received the grand prize of the championship from Repsol’s Deputy Director of Marine and Fisheries, Carlos Sánchez, who was accompanied on stage by the president of the Monte Real Yacht Club, José Luis Álvarez.
In the ORC 1 class, Aceites Abril , with 8 points, won over Bosch Service Solutions , from Canido; and the Santorum & Martínez Group , from Riveira, who were second and third respectively, with 10 and 15 points.
Less close was the first position of the ORC 2, in which the gold went to the hands of Luis García Trigo’s Unus who, wearing a pendant from the Monte Real Club de Yates, signed four first places in the four contested races. He was, without a doubt, the best in the competition, finishing with 4 points. The silver and the bronze, with 12 and 15 points, went to Victor Álvarez’s Nahela (Club Deportivo Alagua) and Fernando Rey’s Albarellos (CN Portonovo).
The other clear victory of the trophy was in the J80 class, in which this year there was a new title at stake, the J80 Luso-Galaica Monotype Cup. The a priori favorite did not disappoint and Javier de la Gándara took Okofen to the top of the table with 5 points. The Repsol Marine and Fisheries Manager, Inés González Megido, was in charge of presenting the crew with the prize for the best 8-meter monodesign. Luis de Mira’s Namasté and Fernando Yáñez’s Cansino , with 18 and 22 points, were second and third.
Finally, in the Figaro class, the winner of the 42nd Monte Real Spring Regatta was Luis Alcázar’s Bouvento , who finished the races with 5 points, after winning 3 of the 4 races held. The Ladeira of the Baionesa Genoveva Pereiro and the Serralleiras of the Madrilenian Elena Raga completed the winners’ podium.

Intense second day of the Repsol Trophy of the Monte Real Yacht Club that has been held in the waters of the Vigo estuary since last Wednesday. This Saturday, in the second stage, the sailboats that compete for the title showed that they are going for it all and after two new tests, they left the provisional classifications very tight.
Despite the difficulties with the wind, which did not blow as much as expected, and which at times slowed down and even left part of the fleet stagnant, the regatta committee was able to complete the two races it had on the programme: a windward-leeward and a coastal tour.
In the competition for the largest boats, the ORC 1, the Pérez Canal brothers’ Aceites Abril is still in the lead with 7 points, but Ramón Ojea’s Bosch Service Solutions closed the gap today and was just one point behind the Ourenses.
Canido’s ship also managed to snatch the first position of the joint general of ORC 1 and 2. Julio Rodríguez’s Starfighter climbed to third place on the provisional ORC 1 podium today, another of the clear contenders for the final victory.
In the ORC 2 class, with the same tests as the ORC 1, Luis García Trigo’s Unus, from the Monte Real Club de Yates, proved intractable once again. He has three victories in the three contested races and except for last minute surprises, he has all the ballots to win. The Nahela de A Guarda, with Victor Álvarez at the controls, rose today from third to second position; and closes the provisional podium the Albarellos of Fernando Rey, from Portonovo.
In the J80 competition, Javier de la Gándara’s Okofen reaffirmed his good work on the water and the results obtained on this second day, with a first in the barlosota and a second in the coastal, allow him to keep his aspirations intact to achieve the title of the J80 Monotype Luso-Galaica Cup, which is held for the first time as part of the Repsol Trophy. Quite a distance from the first, Namasté by Luis de Mira and Cansino by Fernándo Yáñez occupy the second and third positions.
In the Figaro class, which like the J80 competes in real time, there are two boats that remain in the fight for the title after signing the best results today. They are Luis Alcázar’s Bouvento, which will reach the last day in first position after having achieved first and second place today; and the Ladeira of the vice-commodore of Monte Real Genoveva Pereiro, who this Saturday signed a great day and rose to second place. Feeding his illusion to get on one of the boxes of the final podium, Miguel Montes’ Silleiro continues in third position.
Tomorrow, Sunday, the last two tests of the competition will be held, two windward and leeward at the Cíes anchorage that will finish defining the winners’ podium. It will be from noon and in the afternoon, at the Monte Real Club de Yates, the awards ceremony will be held for the winners.

· The boat led by Luis and Jorge Pérez Canal, from Ourense, completed a brilliant regatta on the opening day and became the overall leader of the 42nd Monte Real Spring Regatta
Luis García Trigo’s Unus heads the ORC 2 classification, Javier de la Gándara’s Okofen is first in J80 and in the Fígaros competition the initial victory went to Luis Alcázar’s Bouvento
· After a two-day break, the Repsol Trophy returns next Saturday with the holding of two new tests on the Cíes Islands
The April Oils of the brothers Luis and Jorge Pérez Canal was placed at the head of the Repsol Trophy, inaugurated this holiday on May 1 with the celebration of the first of the tests scheduled in the program of the historic competition of the Monte Real Yacht Club, which in this 2019 celebrates its forty-second edition.
The sailboat from Ourense, wearing the Royal Nautical Club of Vigo flag, was the best in the ORC 1 class, completing the 17’61-mile regatta in just 2 hours and 23 minutes. In addition to the obvious skills of the team, the wind undoubtedly helped at that speed, which remained stable and intense, blowing from the north and sustained between 18 and 20 knots on average.
Today’s was a very showy regatta, starting inside the bay, in an area very close to the beaches, thanks to which residents and visitors were able to enjoy the spectacular nature of the sailboats. After taking a break, the fleet went to Carallones, to close haul to Subrido, turn there and return with a very fast stern.
In the class of large boats, the provisional podium, headed by Aceites Abril, is completed by Grupo Santorum & Martínez de Riveira and Bosch Service Solutions de Canido. Rui Ramada’s Yess Too, another of the boats that promised to put up a fight in this class, had to retire just before the start due to a broken rudder.
In the fight for the leadership of the 42nd Monte Real Spring Regatta in the ORC 2 class, the one that came out the best in today’s race was Luis García Trigo’s Unus, the Monte Real Club de Yates, who managed to get more 15 minutes ahead of the rest when crossing the finish line.
In second and third position are two crews with the possibility of winning one of the final prizes of the competition. They are the Balea Dous of Luis Pérez, of the Real Club Náutico de Rodeira; and Victor Álvarez’s Nahela, from Club Deportivo Alagua.
In the J80 class, Okofen dominates the provisional podium and is a self-proclaimed clear contender for the J80 Luso-Galaica One Design Cup, which is held for the first time as part of the Repsol Trophy and whose winner will emerge from the competition’s winners’ podium.
The crew led by Javier de la Gándara has once again shown that they are the bosses in the J80 class in Galicia, managing to take a 3-minute lead over their closest rival in the first race held today.
They are followed in the standings by Manuel María Cunha’s Marías Casas do Telhado, and Fernando Yáñez’s Cansino, second and third respectively, after crossing the finish line 3 and 4 minutes behind Okofen.
And in the other class that competes in real time in this 42nd Spring Regatta, that of the Figaro Beneteau, the victory of the day was signed by the Bouvento, a Repsol crew that climbed to the first place of the provisional podium thanks to Louis Alcazar.
In the 10-meter sailboats of Monte Real, the crew led by Elena Raga also competed again in this edition, who, aboard the Serralleiras, managed to enter just behind the first, just 17 seconds behind him, taking second place and leaving the third for Miguel Montes’ Silleiro, with a crew made up entirely of students from the Monte Real Sailing School.
After the celebration of this first day, the Repsol Trophy rests for two days to return to the water next Saturday, May 4, with what will be the second day of tests and the first to be held at the Cíes Islands anchorage.
There, at the expense of how the day’s weather is presented, the regatta committee with Fernando Giraldo at the helm, will design a regatta field in which to dispute a windward-leeward race starting at half past twelve at noon, and later a route coastal.
As on Wednesday, on Saturday afternoon, once the competition is over, the Monte Real Club de Yates will offer participants a seafood dinner and a gin and tonic tasting with the collaboration of Martin Miller Gin and Royal Bliss. There will also be live music that day with a performance by the pop music group La Franga from Vigo.

The Baiona club officially presented the competition this morning at a press conference attended by the mayor of Baiona, Ángel Rodal; the person in charge of Marine and Fishing of Repsol, Inés González; and the president and vice president of Monte Real, José Luis Álvarez and Alejandro Retolaza.
The event detailed the characteristics of what is considered one of the most important tests of the heavy sailing season in Galicia, and in which 25 crews from different parts of the country have already announced their participation.
In front of the starting line there will be boats such as the Santorum & Martinez Group of the Club Náutico Deportivo de Riveira, with Javier Durán at the wheel; Jean Claude Sarrade’s Fend la Bise, which will race once again at the Monte Real Club de Yates; Nahela from Club Deportivo Alagua de A Guarda, recent winner of the Comunica Trophy; or the Starfighter by Julio Rodríguez, from the Real Club Náutico de Vigo.
In addition, in 2019 the winners of the previous edition will repeat, which were Ramón Ojea’s Bosch Service Solutions, winner in the cruiser-regatta class and in the general classification; and the Balea Dous de Rodeira, with Luis Pérez at the controls, winner of the cruiser class. Elena Raga, from Madrid, who won the Figaro class in 2018, will also return to Baiona.
In the J80 class, the fleet of boats of the Monte Real Club de Yates will be, once again, the most outstanding, with the presence, among others, of the two monotypes that have won the most recent competitions held in Galicia: the Okofen de Javier de la Gándara and El Cansino by Fernando Yáñez.
Five races in three days of racing
The Repsol Trophy of this 2019 includes in its program five tests divided into the three days that the competition will last.
The first day, tomorrow, Wednesday, the May Day holiday, will include a coastal route starting in the interior of the Bay of Baiona and passing in front of different sandy areas to the Tofiño Lighthouse, in the vicinity of the Galician Sea Museum, turning in the area to return back to the interior of the bay, where the finish line will be placed.
The competition will continue on the weekend of Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th May, with two stages that, although they will be completely defined based on the day’s weather forecasts, are expected to be a windward/leeward and a coastal route on Saturday , and two windward/leeward runs on Sunday. They will be the definitive tests in which the winners’ podiums will be defined and will be held in the vicinity of the Cíes Islands.
In dispute the J80 Luso Galaica Cup
After having been the Spanish J80 Championship in 2018, the 2019 Repsol Trophy will host the J80 Luso Galaica Cup, in which the different J80 participants will measure their strength. The cup will have as its program the same tests planned for the rest of the fleet, including two coastal tours of the Vigo estuary and several poles at the Cíes anchorage. The difference with the cruisers will be that, as usual, the J80, identical to each other, will compete in real time.
“ Few events are more long-lived in Galicia than the Monte Real Yacht Club Spring Regatta, which has been held with great success for more than 40 years” . This was highlighted this morning at the official presentation by the president of Monte Real, José Luis Álvarez, who thanked Repsol for the support it has given the club over all these years.
On behalf of the energy company, sponsor of the event, the person in charge of Marine and Fishing, Inés González, was present, who predicted a great success for the competition and encouraged all the sailors to participate in the trophy.
The presentation was also attended by the head of the sports service of the province of Pontevedra, Daniel Benavides, who highlighted the boost that having these high-level competitions would mean for Galicia; the mayor of Baiona, Ángel Rodal, who stressed the close relationship that Baiona always has with the sea; and the vice president of Monte Real, Alejandro Retolaza, who offered all the details of the trophy.
Dinners, concerts and tastings will complete the sports program
In addition to the water sports program, the 2019 Repsol Trophy includes several leisure activities for the participants, which they can enjoy at Monte Real once the tests are over. The club has prepared for them various seafood dinners, live music and tastings of Martin Miller Gin and Royal Bliss.
