He completed the podium an exceptional Green April with a Luis Pérez Canal that continues to be an excellent start of the season, and that on this occasion he had one of the great Spanish crew, such as Víctor Mariño that belongs to the Quantum sailway, that competes with the legendary North Sails sailway for taking the cat water.

The one in Ourense, just as Pichu Torcida achieved two partial wins, of the six that are held... the remaining were for Gonzalo Araújo and Luis Bugallo, who was by the way regular on Saturday with his Marnatura 1 to end up very tuned on Sunday.

Once again the judges had to work and much, but the prize for their work was to complete the planned program: six sleeves, which was very worthy; for the wind that began from the generous north-east of 12 knots... to end up very justified, with half of this speed.

To highlight the level in the bulk of the platoon, with a Sogacsa that with Páramo to the cane was fourth... and eye only one point behind Bugallo, as well as the Castrosúa that with Willy Alonso to the cane got into the seventh place, right between the Bermudez de Castro. Malalo with the canary Alfredo González in the Solventis was the 6th and his brother, Chuny Bermudez de Castro with Red April, was eighth.

This J70 by Jorge Pérez Canal also featured Chapu Torné (one of the Spanish history of the laser class), José Luis Colmenero, Gonzalo Martínez and Alberto García.

They completed the top two great patterns: in the 9th Laureano Wizner with Marnatura 2 and in the 10th Ramón Ojea with Pazo de Cea... not allowing the young Alejandro Pérez Canal (third Orensian pattern) to enter the top ten with its Bosch Service Solutions. The fourth act for 20 and 21 February. In Vigo it was not news that the News won, but if it was... because it was about not, because La Guardia & Moreira made it very difficult.

"Noticia" by José María Torcida of the Real Club Marítimo de Santander and "La Guardia & Moreira" by Gonzalo Araújo, lead the Winter Series that began in Galician waters in terms of its third series, organized by the Class J70 and the Nautico de Vigo, with a cold and sunny day, but with very little wind. For the second Sunday act, beginning at 10: 00 in the morning, with a planned schedule of four tests and completion of the races at the edge of the two in the afternoon.

In the river of Vigo at noon on Saturday the record of the prevailing winds did not reach the ten knots of north-east component... a bad omen of what would come next... because the technicians saw them and wished them to cover two sleeves. Once again, the members of the Regatas Committee were doing exceptional work. And it's a good thing they did it; that is, having to resort to shorten the course in which it was the second sleeve, already with the wind very justified: six knots.

In the first manga "Noticia" was imposed with Pichu Torcida a la rea, which presented a crew full of illustrious, with the lanzaroteño Rayco Tabares de tactica, two santanderinos amen del rea: Luis Martín Cabíedes and Gonzalo Morales, completing the quintet the Asturian Francisco Palacio. The victory of the great favorites was at the end accompanied by a third in the second manga: total 4 points... the same ones that made the master look established in Vigo... Gonzalo Araújo, in which he prevailed with his "La Guardia & Moreira" in equality: 2 seconds and a total of 4 points. Which caused equality in the first place.

Third in discord, that does stick to the head: Luis Pérez Canal with his "Green April" in which, as we announced, he sailed the Víctor Mariño that is common in the best TP52 in the world: the "Platoon" in Germany. The J70 Orensano achieved the second victory of his day, which added to the fourth opening position, put his score at 5 points.

After the provisional podium, excellent Willy Alonso with "Castrosúa," already a bit distanced with 10 points produced by a 3rd and a 7th; "Sogacsa" by Sancho Paramo "also with 10 points (two fifths)... being the sixth place for the other J70 of the City of Burgas:" Red April "by Jorge Pérez Canal, which is counting on an exception tactic such as the Chuny Bermudez de Castro.

Another court and another group, commanded in the seventh square by "Marnatura 1" by Luis Bugallo, "Pazo de Cea" by Ramón Ojea, "Solventis" with the canary Alfredo González to the cane and Malalo Bermudez de Castro... closing the top ten provisional another illustrious: the Malagueño Laureano Wizner with "Marnatura 2."

Vigo will be this weekend an oasis in our country, which offers a full picture of regorative cancellations all over the coast... The Vigo Winter Series of J70, despite the serious problems will not stop and despite the very few problems in the transfers of the crews and the monotypes themselves by road, the competition will start at one and a half on Saturday afternoon, in front of the Sports Port of the Royal Nautical Club of Vigo. For the time being, those who have the most complicated are from the Mediterranean units: the "Mercedes Benz" of Luis Martínez Doreeste and the "Leti t Be" of Juan Calvo Boronat of the Royal Nautical Club of Denia.

It'll be two days. The first Saturday with the beginning of the one and a half of the afternoon, with many patterns of international value, which offer a group of quality hardly superable, in any competition in Spain, at any time of the year.

Pichu Torcida that seems more and more difficult to be beaten, will be in line with its "Noticia" flag in the Royal Maritime Club of Santander... which has a tactic of a maximum level: Rayco Tabares. One of its great rivals is Luis Bugallo, with "Marnatura 1..." Luis is certainly one of the best young patterns of the Spanish candle today... it is worth the data that is part of the national team in Young Americas Cup and Sail GP.

In the "Green April" that has as its patron the amateur world champion of J70 Luis Pérez Canal, he will present on this occasion with Víctor Mariño, who is also a globalist and also of the few Spaniards in the World Cicruíto of TP52... in the German "Platoon." In the "Red April" of the Orensian Jorge Pérez Canal who was a national laser champion, this weekend will sail, the for many best Spanish oceanic pattern of all time, along with Javier Gandara: the Coruñés Chuny Bermudez de Castro... by the way his brother Malalo who will compete in the "Solventis- Canarias" has managed to incorporate his J70, nothing less than the world canary champion Alfredo González.

They complete the group of favorites, the great Gonzalo Araújo with "La Guardia & Moreira," Luis Albert of the Club de Mar de Mallorca with "Patakín..." another "Return to the World" such as Pablo Iglesias who sails in the "Sogacsa" of Sancho Paramo... or quality patterns of Willy Alonso, Ramón Ojea with "Pazo de Cea," Alejandro Pérez Canal with "Bosch Service Solutions..." quote of five stars in Vigo from the hand of the Real Nautical Club of Vigo and the J70 Class. The olive city this weekend will be the focus of the heavy Spanish high competition sailing.
