The Young America's Cup Luis Bugallo Arriola, one of the most solid values of the Spanish heavy candle at the command of Marnatura 1 armed by José Luis Freire, was the absolute dominator of the second act of the Villalia Spring Series that have been held in the waters of the Ria de Vigo, the hand of the Royal Nautical Club and the J70 Class.

The Galician crew managed to accumulate four first posts, in the six sleeves that the series had. The second square was for another of our best rods, for Gonzalo Araújo, who already knows what it is to navigate successfully as a pattern in the World Round, in the TP52 Circuit or in the Rolex Cup... while the third place was the amateur continental champion of J70, the Orensian Luis Pérez Canal with April Verde.

Second day of celebration on Sunday with winds from the south of 10-15 knots, which allowed the Ria de Vigo to be a splendid field of races, and to complete four more sleeves. Spectacular Marnatura 1 that managed to impose on three of the four sleeves held... so his domain became overwhelming in this second act with 8 points, of which 6 were net because he despised his worst score than a second!

His great rival on Saturday was the Noticia del Marítimo de Santander, by Luis Cabiedes, with a fantastic crew with three world bicampoons of J80 and recent (2019-2021), such as the Basque Jon Lazarrabal, the canary Alberto Padron and the cantabre Pablo Santurde. However, after starting on Saturday with a first one, it reduced its intensity with 5º-10º-7º-6º-3º-3rd, and had to conform to the sixth square.

In front of him, in addition to the three mentioned above, Sogacsa was patronized by Sancho Páramo and the one who was the patron of the Black Telefonica in the Volvo, Pablo Iglesias... and a SailCascais loaded with good Lusian regatists, with the Olympic Vasco Serpa in command.

It is also necessary to highlight in the Sunday day, the good races of Pazo de Cea de Ramón Ojea of the Club Marítimo de Canido, which after an irregular Saturday, achieved good results: 4º -3º -4º -5º, which was good for him to take part in the first squares, and leave behind J70 strong, case of the Red April of Jorge Pérez Canal, or the Marnatura 2 of Alberto Basadre. He closed the top ten a Seneca SW, from Willy Alonso, who was quite well on Saturday.

Very high level in the Villalia Spring Series of J70, which together with the Barcelona Series hoist the attention at the peninsular level of the reference class of monotypes of the current heavy candle. The next event will be in April, on 2 and 3. For the moment in Vigo, dominion of Marnatura 1 by Luis Bugallo.

The J70 Marnatura with the Vigués Luis Bugallo a la rea continues in the leadership of the Villalia Spring Series, which celebrated in the Ria de Vigo the first day of the second act, by the hand of the Royal Nautico Club and the Class, of the monotype of sailing reference. The second will be held on Sunday, beginning at 10: 00 in the morning.

The Galician crew had to be used in depth to measure the debutante Noticia of the Real Club Marítimo de Santander, recently arrived in Galician waters from Barcelona, where it is competing in the Catalan series of this class. The J70 Cantabre presented in Vigo, a powerful crew that in the class J80 has achieved in 2019 and 2021 the World Cup of this monotype... is composed of the canary Alberto Padron, the Basque Jon Larrazábal and the cantabros Pablo Santurde and Luis Cabiedes.

Noticia began by scoring what was his first victory in his locker, second being Marnatura 1 of Bugallo, and third the Sogacsa of Sancho Paramo (who continues to sail very well. The first squares were completed by the other Marnatura of the hand of one of the most solid promises of the Galician heavy candle (canteran of the Club Marítimo de Canido): Alberto Basadre, being the fifth for the Orensian Luis Pérez Canal with April Verde. Later on, the Lupitano Olympics of Vasco Serpa, which with SailCascais were six.

The wind in the first valid sleeve was from the south-west of 15 knots, slowly going down... setting in the 10 knots of the west and even with a tendency to the north-west. This made it very difficult for the judges, under the command of the Herculine Jaime García, who had to go up to the Cangas training to successfully complete the second delivery, in which Luis Bugallo returned the ball to the cants... for now he was Marnatura.

To highlight Willy Alonso's second position with Séneca SW, what it is worth to get in among the first five... that become by this order Marnatura 1, Noticia, Sogacsa, April Verde and Seneca... and very attached to them in the sixth the amazing Marnatura 2. Except for surprises between them and perhaps the lisboets of the SailCascais and those of Gonzalo Araújo, in LaGuardia & Moreira, will be the posts above this second act of the Villalia.
