The differences are minimal in all classes, with a decisive Sunday

A carousel between the islands of Ibiza and Formentera of 14 miles and with a soft wind that barely reached 10 knots, was the tour chosen by the Regata Committee for the third and penultimate day of the Ibiza JoySail, where in four of the five categories the same leaders remained: Moat (Performance), Liberty Squared (Cruising L), Open Season (Cruising M), Spiip (Cruising XL). While Nostromo was the only one who recovered the first place in World Cruising.

The Moat arrives on the last day of the Ibiza JoySail as the only undefeated ship from among the entire fleet of 22, after having won the three trials disputed to date, the last one this Saturday, showing that it is still the ship to be beaten. The Jasi, his twin, follows the stela with three seconds and Morgana with three third parties, so the Swan115 of Juan Ball has all the numbers to revalidate the title, although it will have to wait for the last test on Sunday, as the difference is three points on the Jasi. The Esense is the only Corinthian ship in Performance.

Meanwhile the Liberty Squared in Cruising L is the leader since the first day, and although it arrived with two first, this Saturday was overtaken by the Kiboko 4 of Juan Ignacio Entechanas, the only Spanish ship in competition and that also reaffirms its leadership in the Corinthian category. The Kiboko made a perfect race and although he took the victory, he remains second in the general, placing himself at two points of Liberty. Third is the twin ship to the Kiboko, the Gelliceaux, which has been left out of the struggle for victory.

The two Cafe Racer continue to give their particular show in almost match race format. The Open Season and the Ganesha are two ships almost the same and this Saturday they broke the equality with which they arrived after the first two days in which they had made a first and a second equal. On this third day, the Open Season won the manga with a clear difference of 1 minute and 29 seconds over the Ganesha. The third is Shambho, who will play the Corinthian title with the Mexican Wind, which is fourth in the general.

Those who will also play the title in Cruising XL on the last manga of this Sunday will be the Siip and L'Hippocampe, the first one won on the first day and has two consecutive seconds, including today's. And although L'Hippocampe won this Saturday, he's still second in the general, now to a point in the Siip. From between the two, the one left ahead in the final day, will be the champion, with the permission of the Geist who is third to two points of the leader and who has also shown that he is able to win sleeves.

The World Cruising class was the only one who had a change in leadership, the Nostromo has recovered the head of the board after winning the test and temporarily debanding Aurelius in the particular duel they hold among themselves, where the first and second positions are distributed. On this occasion the Nostromo won the third test and the difference between the two remains only one point, just as in Cruising XL will win from between two the one left ahead of each other in the last sleeve. The solution tomorrow Sunday with start at 12: 00
