The coastal race held in poor wind conditions left Concessa, Carmen, Zalata and Tenton as winners

The second test of Act I of the XXVI Return to the Islands- Star Trophy was closed on Sunday with a coastal test of 7.1 nautical miles for the ORC 1 to the ORC 3, while the ORC 4 completed a tour of 6.2 miles. Day marked by the very bad wind conditions, very ragged and unstable, reaching the last units to the line of arrival with just 3 knots of intensity. It was also marked by the favorites who did not fail, although the Zalata partials in ORC 3 and Tenton in ORC 4, together with the remains of results in those categories has led both to lead their respective groups. In ORC 1 Concise and El Carmen in ORC 2, both adding their second partial triumph, keep them one more day at the head of their groups.

Concisa had no problems winning on Sunday, both in real time and in compensated time. The second square was for Sirius IV followed by Sivinga. In that same line was El Carmen in ORC 2, although it should be noted that José Coello's Synergy 40 had a failure in the rudder that he was able to solve provisionally in race, being the first to take the line of arrival as first. Already with the times compensated, he achieved a new triumph. The second and third square, respectively, was for Cañas II and Marlex. The general after two tests is configured with Concisa, Sirius IV and Sivinga in the first three squares of ORC 1, while in ORC 2 the provisional podium is composed of El Carmen, Cañas II and Inma.

In ORC 3 Zalata achieved a triumph that would give him leadership in the class, to the detriment of Enwtec, winner in the Juan Fernández race. Trebol Queen II was second while Altair Sixth was third. These results left the provisional general, with these two tests, with Zalata, Trebol Quee II and Pinto III occupying the first three places. There has also been a change of leader in ORC 4, following the results of Sunday, with Tenton's triumph, which makes him lead the group. The second place on this test was for Beluga One and Pacharan. The second place in the provisional general with two tests is for Pacharan (third on Sunday) followed by Garola III with a 3 and a 4. The third test is held on November 27.

Act I of the Return to the Islands- The Star of Levant Trophy continues to advance its program. After a week of competition, the Juan Fernández Regata. The one that organizes the Real Club de Regatas de Cartagena, and that is being fought next Sunday, November 6, will again have the best cruise fleet ORC of the Region of Murcia. The favorites, and those who now occupy podium plaza, will seek in these two days to expand their advantage or maintain their positions, mainly those who achieved the triumph last weekend. But Concise, El Carmen, Enewtec and Pacharan, along with the rest of the fleet that reaches the 40 ships will not have it easy, as the weather conditions for this weekend are very complicated for all. The provisional leaders, after a disputed test of the five planned, will not have as their only enemy those possible wind conditions, but will also have to be attentive to ships that also hope to improve their position on the table, in their respective classes.

After the race Juan Fernández the cruise fleet faces this weekend the second delivery, of the five planned, of Act I in which the best of the Region of Murcia and Cartagena participate

In this line we can point to the Sirius IV of the Spanish Navy, second in ORC 1 in that first test, or to Svinga 3, third in the table. They can be joined by Hakuna S, HMS Surprise or Fandango 300-Talasur among others. In ORC 2 the bouquet is wide, so El Carmen must be keeping its line if it does not want to be overcome by Diselrec, Inma or Argo Navis, to quote one of them. In class ORC 3, there are also many alternatives to the leadership of Enewtec, with ships that have already shown their level, case of Zalata, Trebol Queen or Pinto III among a large group of ships that always bring show or many surprises. In ORC 4 Pacharan will have strong opponents case of Tenton, a regular in podium squares Garola III, Agüica 2.0, Beluga One or Ma Petite Douce. It is expected to be able to complete on Sunday a coastal tour between 10 and 8 nautical miles for the 'big' and slightly less for the ORC 3 and ORC 4.
