The women of the Sail Team BCN get into the semifinals of the American Cup

The Sail Team BCN today confirmed its ranking for the semi-finals of the American Women's Cup after ending in the third position of group B of classification, which brings together the six teams that are not linked to any major American Cup challenge.

The Sail Team BCN has again displayed a huge regularity to impose on the particular duel that it has lived with Australia throughout the day to tie the square in semi-finals. The Swedish team, which is the only one that has had a sailing boat in place to train, and the Dutch will accompany the Sail Team BCN in the four semi-final sleeves, which will be held next Friday, October 11.

The other three rivals that will fight the semifinals will leave group A, in which the teams linked to the challenges of the absolute America Cup compete. Group A was expected to sail today too, but the breakup of the sailing boat that Canada and Britain share has forced us to postpone their races until Thursday, when we will know the name of the three classified.

The honors are equally distributed after the first day of the Regata J Class in Barcelona

After a spectacular first day of competition at the Regata J Class in Barcelona, which saw the beautiful and majestic great yachts of the past of the American Cup in a closed and exciting action, the honors were equally shared among the newest and oldest yachts of the three-boat fleet: Svea and Velsheda. Both won a race each, while Rainbow finished the first race in third place after suffering a tear in the spinnaker, and then had to withdraw from the second race due to damage to his jumper sprader, which they expect to repair during the night.
