The second day of the Winter League Baitra J80 will be held on March 20

The Marías, led by Manuel Marías, was the winner on Saturday in Baiona of the first stage of the Winter League Baitra J80, the winter monotypes competition organized by Mount Real Club of Yates that will be held in five days until next May.

The Portuguese sailboat, with Tiago Morais, Marta Ramada, Vasco Tinoco and Antonio Marías completing the crew, managed to win in the only test that could be disputed because of the wind, which blew very little intensity, always below 5 knots, and prevented the three sleeves provided for in the program.

The Marías left as one of the favorites in the quinielas and did not let down. The team of young lucid regatists proved to be very coerced in the maneuvers and managed to beat the rest of the fleet on the double path between buoys designed by the regatta committee for this inaugural stage.

The New Moon of Juan Luis Tuero tried to double the Portuguese but finally had to conform to the second position and the Cansino of Fernando Yáñez was third in the provisional classification.

The Okofen of Javier de la Gandara, another of the J80 with clear aspirations for the title, did not have much luck on this first day and fell down to the fourth position; followed by the Spaco of Santiago Estevez, which goes fifth, and the Due of Rafael Blanco, of Portosin, which is sixth. The classification shall be provisionally as follows:

The Mount Real Club of Yates opens tomorrow Saturday its sports calendar of 2021 with the Winter League Baitra J80... will be a hundred regatists we will see competing in the waters of the river of Vigo in five days to fight until next May; the first on Saturday and the next on March 20, April 10 and May 15 and 29.

In addition to those in the monotypes competition of Mount Real, on this occasion the champion of Spain of the Finn class, Miguel Fernández Vasco... the Coruñés, with several national titles and numerous awards in his own, will join the league of J80, and will lead a crew of members of the regatta team of the School of Sailing of the Royal Nautical Club of A Coruña on board La Galera.

Another national champion, in this case of the Snipe class in Portugal, Miguel Leite, returns to Mount Real where it is common to see him in the great cruise competitions such as the Count of Gondomar Trophy or the Prince of Asturias. We have long been able to see him carrying the Miudo rod by Storax, also in the J80 league; and on this occasion he will join the Ifaclinic.com of Joao Nuno Allen another of the new additions to the J80 fleet of Baiona.

With a sharp accent, the Marías de Manuel María Cunha (with José Valentim Cunha, José María Cunha, Antonio María Cunha and Vasco Tinoco) will also participate in the Winter League Baitra J80, which we will expect to see war on the Okofen of Javier de la Gandara, seeking to revalidate the title achieved in 2020. It is the ship that the most league titles of J80 del Monte Real has in its possession and will carry on board the children of Gandara Jaime and Javier, and Diego Fernández.

The crews that were made last year with the silver and bronze of the winter competition of monotypes, the Alboroto of Juan Carlos Ameneiro and the Maija of José Luis Pérez also repeat in this new edition and will be, if they manage to maintain their good trajectory, two of the ships that we will surely see in the highest positions of the classification.

In the Alboroto de Juan Carlos Ameneiro are maintained Juan José Lago and Javier Lago, and is added as a novelty another historical of the sailing in Galicia, Miguel Lago, which for a long time sailed in J80 and which is recently usual to see with the fleet of 6 meters.

They complete the list of candidates to take the Winter League Baitra J80, the Spaco de Santiago Estévez (with Pablo Franco, José Quiñones and Javier Martínez), the Cansino de Fernando Yáñez (with Manuel Fernández, Alejandra Suárez, Pilar Fernanda Amaro and Ignacio Sánchez Otaegui), the Luna Nueva de Juan Luis Tuero (with Miguel Cidras, Rogelio Torres and Pedro Núñez), the Ferromes de Rosario García (with Jaime García, Oswaldo Álvarez and Roberto Montero), the Namasté de Luis de Amela (Luis, Luis María Martínez, and the Carreo de Múrea (with Luis María María, and Maria Maria Maria, and Pedro de La Carreo). The last to sign up for the competition are the Petilla de Jaime Barreiro, the Due de Rafael Blanco and the Mondo de Bernardo Macedo.

The first day will start at three in the afternoon in waters inside Baiona Bay... with a weather forecast that announces a sunny day with north component winds that will not reach 10 knots... Carlos Villar will be responsible for the Committee of Regatas, which has a three-stick planning with a duration of 45 minutes each.
