Another day in white in the waters of the river of Vigo

The orange alert announced by the State Meteorology Agency prevented on Sunday the Laser and Formula Foil fleet from competing in the Ría de Vigo, giving the title thus to the winners of the first day of this second cycle of Atlantic Week, Trophy Martín Barreiro, which organizes as each year the Royal Nautical Club of Vigo.

Although the river could be navigated (the bad weather was always beyond the Cies), the Regatas Committee had to follow the weather and lasers and windsurfers on the ground. It was worth the only race held on Saturday, raising to champions the leaders of Luísa Peres (CV Viana) in Radial Laser, Serafim Gonçalves (CN Povoense) in Laser Standard and Alejandra Peleteiro (RCN Sanxenxo) in Laser 4.7. In Formula Foil, victory for Juan Vieito (Liméns WSC).

Now, after this dazzling edition because of the gods Zeus, Poseidon and Eolo, to whom it seems that this viguese quote makes us too much grace... Optimist's Meeting tradition remains... but that will be the next and last act.

2020 / 10 / 24: Durum day in viguese waters in the Martín Barreiro de Vela Ligera, with laser and fire in action

The veteran Laserista Lusian Serafim Gonçalves was well in Vigo, strengthened by his weight that helped him in the harsh conditions of wind and sea

Second act of the Martin Barreiro Trophy with the Atlantic Week Rocket, very flattened by the very harsh weather conditions in the Ria de Vigo... the winds of 18 to 20 knots of the beginning became at times at about 30 knots, which caused the event that the Royal Nautical Club of Vigo organized to account for only a valid test.

In the test performed, Luísa Peres (CV Viana) was imposed on Radio Laser, while Serafim Gonçalves (CN Povoense) was on Standard Laser. Alejandra Peleteiro (RCN Sanxenxo) added the only Galician triumph among the lasers, precisely in the largest fleet of the three. In Formula Foil, victory for Juan Vieito (Liméns WSC).

This Sunday, second and last day for the fleet (11: 00 hours).
