Finalices the Euro Flying Cup, disputed in Altea with great participation, 17 boats from 5 countries (Portugal, Hungary, Germany, Holland and Spain) have enjoyed this trial, although the wind haven’t accompanied all that was predicted.

The trial has caracterized by the great eqality between all the boats, not knowing who would be the winner until the last beam.

At last, the boat that ‘took the cat to the water’ was the one formed by Fran Martínez/Arturo Machado, ESP-81, who in the last beam went for the first moment obtaining great advantage when arriving at the windward buoy.

In second position we find Ginés Romero/Roberto Sevila, ESP-6, that tried it but they could not with the impetus of the winning boat.

The third position was for the Dutch boat formed by Frank Havik/Ard Geelberken, NED-6, that brought the new carbon masts which will be seen from principles of next month.

It is necessary to congratulate as much the organization of the regata in earth by their facilities in everything and their well doing, as well as to the committee of races that were quite to the height of this important event. Thanks to all to make us enjoy this test.

From here the only thing to be done is to locate all the Flyers for the next test that will be disputed in the Moraira Nautic Club.
