The Miudo de Afonso Leite and the Okofen of Javier de la Gandara both lead with 13 points the Infinitus Rent Trophy of J80 after the celebration of the fourth j0rnada that the Mount Real Club of Yates has been celebrating since the beginning of the year. The races carried out by both ships, caused the third position to fall to the Virazo de Miguel Lago, which came in the head and remains one of the clearest favorites.

Although the forecasts announced a complicated day, with little wind for navigation, it finally remained quite stable, and with about 8 knots of average allowed the fleet to dispute the three scheduled sleeves. The first was the Meltemi of Guillermo Blanco, of the Real Club Náutico de A Coruña; in the second the Ferromeres, of Enrique Porto, of Monte Real; and in the third the Portuguese Miudo, of the We Do Sailing club.

With these results and with the entry into play of the discard, the classification, which had been leading the Vidito, was quite removed and almost all the crews changed their position. The provisional podium is now occupied by the Miudo, Okofen and Vidito, which go first, second and third respectively.

The fourth position is held, with 28 points, the Cansino, by Fernando Yáñez; and in the fifth and sixth position are the Meltemi of Guillermo Blanco, with 31 points, and the Namasté of Luis de Mira, with 34. In the middle drawers, the little distance that separates much of the fleet augurs an exciting final for a trophy to which today two new J80, the Cunichán of Javier Martínez Valente, and the Boi de Canto of the vice-comandoro of Monte Real, Genoveva Pereiro, joined.

Once the equator of the competition is over, the Infinitus Rent Trophy has only two days left to define the winning podium. The next one will be held in 15 days, on 10 March, and 24 will be the final day. For that last stage, a fraternization dinner is also scheduled at the facilities of Mount Real Club de Yates and the award of prizes to the winners. The general is as follows:

1. MAUDO · Afonso Leite · We Do Sailing · 13 points
2. OKOFEN · Javier de la Gandara · Monte Real Club de Yates · 13 points
3. VIRAZON · Miguel Lago · Monte Real Club de Yates · 18 points
4. CANSINO · Fernándo Yáñez · Monte Real Club de Yates · 28 points
5. MELTEMI · Guillermo Blanco · Real Club Nautico de A Coruña · 31 points
