Jordi Cargol revalidates the title of Spanish champion in adapted sailing

The 26th edition of the Canary Islands Olympic Sailing Week closed this Sunday, December 8, with the award ceremony after four days of racing and 75% of the program completed.

Three race areas, 200 sailors in 150 boats along with fifty people in the organization, which, as highlighted by the commodore, Alejandro Martín, have once again made this "logistical challenge" a success.

On Friday, December 6, seven of the eleven participating classes did not score, and in the end, only adapted sailing in the 2.4mR class, which celebrates the Spanish Championship in parallel, and the youth boards managed to complete the planned program 100%.

The sailor from the Club de Vela Puerto de Andratx, Jordi Cargol, has managed to revalidate his national title and has been proclaimed, for the fourth time, Spanish champion of Adapted Sailing in the 2.4mR class. The Canarians José Guerra, silver medal, and Juan Santana, bronze medal, complete the podium of the national event. "It has been a very close race, it was tough, but I am very happy to revalidate the title and to do it here at this regatta and in this club," explained Cargol.

After three days in which the wind and sea conditions were not so favorable, this Sunday the weather forecast gave respite and the northeast wind that started at 7 knots and reached 12 at the end of the day, allowed all classes to complete the day's program.
