The sailors competed aboard Beneteau B-One class monotypes in short, fast races with direct judging at sea. "The programme foresaw races on Saturday and Sunday, but the weather prevented us from sailing on Saturday. On Sunday, however, we were able to hold a total of 12 races, with some waves and a south-westerly wind of around 12 knots on average, with peaks of up to 15 knots", Muniesa explained. 

"But the most important thing is the great atmosphere at the club. Both Saturday and Sunday we held a breakfast with all the sailors, with an average age of 22. It has been very interesting for everyone to meet fellow sailors from different parts of Spain. They have bonded, shared experiences and had a great time", he highlights.‹
