The Bullbox, by Luis Noguera, the absolute winner of the twenty-eighth edition of the Villa de Gijón Regata of Cruise-Trophy El Comercio, which has organized the Real Club Astur de Regatas de Gijón... for its part, the Ita II, of Pedro Guerra renews the victory for the third consecutive time in the Regata in class two.

Very good conditions to navigate from the beginning of the first test, with an established north-east wind of 15 knots of intensity, sea of wind and sunny day. A cane tour was made in front of the beach of San Lorenzo, which had to be completed three times with a total of 12 miles away.

On Sunday the weather conditions were very similar to those of Saturday, although the wind would reach 20 knots, with the bottom sea partly because the wind would not stop blowing all night.

In class I, the Bullbox of Luis Noguera, was certainly the protagonist in both days, he defeated in the two trials, from Sebastiano Napoli's hand to the wheel. The Italian was gradually distancing itself from the fleet and its most immediate persecutor, the Taxus MedioAmbiente of Alfredo Flórez. In the first sleeve only 18 seconds separated the two ships in compensated time. Therefore, a lot of equality in the first two positions of the classification table. The third square was for Fernando Alonso, with the GS1.

The second manga was a broth to the first in terms of classification, although the breakages passed bill to part of the fleet that had to be managed as they could not waste much time on the line of arrival. Again. the Bullbox was the best, followed by the Taxus Environment and the GS1.
