After three days of race in the river of Pontevedra with constant changes in the general and a podium of the most tight, they have finally been the Romanian Essentia in Classics and the Swiss Momo in Open.

For the fleet of Classics, the seventh edition of the Regata Rey Juan Carlos I The English Master Court could not have been more flawed. After a hand-in-hand between the Essenia of Catalin Trandafir and the Bribon 500 of José Cusí for almost the whole weekend, a break at the beginning of the last manga prevented the Bribon 500 from fighting for the final victory, which came to the hands of the representative of Romania after leading the general from the first day of race.

The Trandafir team sealed a perfect weekend with two wins, three seconds on and a fourth position that becomes its discard, ending the one that is its second race in class 6 Metros with three points of advantage over the Bribon 500, which ends second. From behind, he completed the podium the Finnish Astrée III of Ossi Paija.

In the Open division, the entry into play of the discard after the six-test program was completed was final for the final podium. The Swiss Momo patronized by Dieter Schoen was from less to more during the first two days of race until today Sunday, with a quarter and a sixth scored, he rose with the triumph.
