The XIII César Manrique Trophy – RCNA – Calero Marinas recovered its essence with a competition of the highest level.

The committee had a complicated last day due to the wind, but the Lanzarote race course once again did not disappoint the fleet.

The last day of the XII Trofeo César Manrique – RCNA – Calero Marinas was marked by the lack of wind, which prevented all the scheduled races to be held in the bay of Arrecife.

Both Group 1 (ORC 1, ORC 2 and ORC 3) and Group 2 (ORC 4 and ORC 5) were able to demonstrate their skills in a regatta that would close the overall final classification and which allowed spectators to see all these boats in action once again.

In ORC 1 and ORC 2, Lanzarote Sailing Paradise scored a new victory to secure the title of champion in a classification that remained unchanged. Ye Cabrera’s boat (3 points) was followed by Katanga and Muyay (9) to complete the podium, closing the classification with Arcturus (12) and Sorondongo IV (18).

Lanzarote Sailing Paradise took the lead early on, without losing the top positions at any time, with Katanga being the only boat able to keep up with them. Muyay did not get complacent, and had a very serious race despite seeming to be assured of a third place, which it would eventually obtain. While the Arcuturus would have to settle for fourth place.

There was also no time to change a leaderboard that was perfectly defended by Lucio Perez’s Solum Aedas Home in ORC 3, which was also unbeatable from the start. Ferrer y García did not make things easy for him and he fought until the end, being the only one to have options to assault a first place that he disputed in the first part of the competition. In the end, however, Solum Aedas Home (3) widened the gap in its favor and won the gold medal comfortably. Ferrer y García (6) had to settle for silver in this category, while Pionene (10) was third. Alaia I (11) and Poseidon (15) completed, in that order, the ORC 3 places.

The same happened with Joaquín Blanco’s boat in ORC 4-5, and the Buchata (3 pts.) was also able to remain as leader, repeating victory and title for the Gran Canarian team.

This category was much more closely contested, but Buchata chose a better strategy to achieve a well-deserved victory, with many boats focused on winning the title. This was the case of Calero Marinas Wind, Maeña 9 and Calero Marinas Lanzarote, which were very close to the wake marked by the Gran Canarian

Finally, it was Maeña 9 (4) and Tango (5) who won second and third place, respectively. The Calero Marinas Wind Team (6) was just one step away from the podium, with a remarkable

fourth place, followed by El Mateo (10), the Alzenit (12), the Altamar I (15), the Calero Marinas Lanzarote (15), the Luna Doce (18) and the Manitu (20).

All that remained was the awards ceremony to live up to the high level demonstrated by the participants. Marina Lanzarote hosted this event to officially proclaim the new winners of the twelfth edition of the César Manrique Trophy – RCNA – Calero Marinas. During the ceremony, several awards were presented to various personalities and mentions were made for sporting achievements.

This event was organized by Calero Marinas and the RCNA, and was sponsored by Islas Canarias, Turismo Lanzaorte, Deportes del Cabildo de Lanzarote, Arrecife City Hall and Mercedes-Benz Louzao.
