The race will be held this time only in the waters of Bizkaia, with the 'Yamamay', the 'Aizen' and the 'Gorilón' cantabros, the 'Phoenix' guipuzcoano, the 'Ay Ay Ay' French, the 'Bullbox' asturian and the 'Symphony', 'Ashandar WOP,' Akelarre ',' Zazpiki ',' Maitena 'or' Gaitero ', among the seekers to achieve the precious Golden Whale. There will also be a female division with a special trophy. Since the early 1990s of the last century (1992), this quote, which has been sponsored by the Sports Ports of Euskadi-Euskadiko Kirol Portuak, has become a reference in the Cantabric. It has done so both for its number of participating ships (they will be around 40) and for its quality. The race, which returns to Getxo after receiving the test in 2011 and 2015, reaches this edition with the usual level of competition and organization, being among the country's most significant tests in its category.

The classic Basque race will once again lead the special Golden Whale, an exclusive and prestigious trophy, which has become a classic of the candle in the Cantabrian. The best patterns in the northern area will sail in peach waters for carrying this sought-after prize to their vitrines. The gold, silver and bronze whales will be awarded to crews who get the lowest score of the IRC Divisions after the three days of competition that make up this edition. The race brings together some of the most prominent patterns of the Cantabrian and the bulk of the Basque and Cantabrian fleets, with some French ships, to complete a participation of about thirty ships of cruise in the whole of the different divisions in liza. "A female competition is added in J 80 with a boat from each club: from the Real Club Marítimo del Abra - Real Sporting Club, the Real Club Nautico de San Sebastián and the Club Nautico de Hondarribia" highlights Eduardo Santamarina, the sports director of the test. "The presence of women becomes increasingly visible with the presence of only female crews in this edition" Edurne Egaña, director of Euskadiko Kirol Portuak, highlighted.

Last year the final victory was for the 'Gorilón' of Emigdio Bedia, ship of the Royal Maritime Club of Santander, which was made with the prestigious gold whale as a few weeks ago took the Bizkaia Championship. On the other hand, Richard Bedere's French 'Elior Beelzebuth' achieved the silver whale on a date in which the wind did not turn out to be a faithful crew partner in that edition of the 25th anniversary of the Costa Vasca Regata. The 'Ashandar WOP' by Lorenzo Mendieta, of the Royal Abra Maritime Club - Real Sporting Club, was the third square and, therefore, the bronze whale. The 'Gorilón', a ship of Santander, set up the desired whale and thus took one of the most important competitions for sailing boats of the cruise class in the Basque Country.
