In this edition 20 crews of the ORC and J80 classes will offer a great sailing spectacle to the sailing enthusiasts.
The capital of Lanzarote will be the epicenter of the great celebration of sailing during the celebration of the XIII Trofeo César Manrique – RCNA – Calero Marinas, which will take place from Thursday until next Sunday. This prestigious event, which began in 2002 in response to the local fleet’s demand for a high-level event, has become consolidated as one of the three most important events on the national circuit. In this edition, the J80 fleet is introduced, in addition to the usual Cruiser (ORC) class, offering an even more exciting and competitive experience. “Everyone will be able to enjoy the spectacle of sailing, follow the regattas live via tracking, or enjoy them from the boat that will be available to the public. We have one of the best regatta courses and a fun social program accompanied by our fine cuisine,” said the organizers at the presentation.

The César Manrique Trophy – RCNA – Calero Marinas will count with the participation of 20 boats, including an outstanding representation of the fleets of Tenerife and Las Palmas, with a strong support of the local fleet. The skipper’s meeting will be held today afternoon, Thursday, June 6, marking the official start of the event. The competition will begin on Friday, June 7 at the race course, located a few meters from the coast of Reef, allowing all fans to follow the different races from land to conclude on Saturday, June 8, where the last races will be held and the winners of this edition will be announced. The races can be followed live on the event’s official website, www.trofeocesarmanrique.com, offering an immersive experience for all sailing enthusiasts who are unable to attend in person. It will once again highlight the excellent conditions offered by the Canary Islands for the practice of this sport, and more specifically Lanzarote and Arrecife, as one of the best race courses in the world, where many nautical events have been held as the transoceanic race, also organized by Calero Marinas, as the RORC Transatlantic Race or the 44 Cup Calero Marinas or, in other nautical disciplines, as the World Canoe World Cup. First class infrastructures, such as Marina Lanzarote, which will host the fleet participating in this thirteenth edition of the César Manrique Trophy, together with an experienced organization of high level regattas, make the Canary Islands the perfect cocktail to host top level nautical events.
