Plenty of wind and usual winners at the Trofeo Olimpic by GP
The favorite boats, Airlan Aermec, of Joan Cabrer (ORC 1); Presto, owned by Eduardo Horrach (ORC 2); Ibe-Tres-Mares, of María Campins (ORC 3), and January Sails, owned by Gabriel Català (ORC 4) easily win in each of their category in the regatta organised by the Real Club Náutico de Palma.

The Bay presented strong winds never under 18 knots and with gusts up to 25 knots giving a spectacular second racing day. The Trofeo Olimpic by GP, with the support of Dyreco, Pro-Rigging and Xicarandana, sailed two races in all.
In the ORC 1 group, Airlan-Aermec, finished first as usual, followed by Bruix, of Miguel Angel Mercadal, and in third place, Petrouchka III, of Jaime Binimelis.
