The Balearic ILCA 4 fleet travels to Valencia to conquer the Spanish Cup

The Real Club Náutico de Valencia raises the curtain on dinghy sailing in 2024 and does so with a national title at stake. From the 18th to the 21st of January, the capital of the Turia will host the ILCA 4 Spanish Cup, which will bring together 142 sailors representing nine autonomous communities: Catalonia, Balearic Islands, Region of Murcia, Andalusia, Galicia, Cantabria, Canary Islands, Euskadi and Comunitat Valenciana.

The best of each territorial federation, after a classification process, will be present at La Base de Regatas competing during three days for one of the two national titles at stake.

Some twenty sailors from different Balearic yacht clubs will compete in this ILCA 4 Spanish Cup, including the recent Balearic women's champion, the sailor from the Reial Club Nàutic Port de Pollença, Magdalena Villalonga, and the Balearic men's champion, from the Real Club Náutico de Palma, Juan Bennassar. Also participating are sailors from Club Nàutic Sa Ràpita, Club Nàutic S'Arenal, Club Marítimo San Antonio de la Playa, Club Nàutic S'Estanyol and Club Nàutic Cala Gamba.

Nine races are scheduled to take place over the three days, with a qualifying series and a final series. The starting time for the first race of the day has been set at 12.00h for all three days.
