With this triumph, CRI-RICOH revalidates its title as Island Champions for the third consecutive year. The first two places achieved by the CRI-RICOH in this 11th and penultimate regatta of the league, have made the boat skippered by Adrián Rosales proclaimed as the fair winner of this 2016 season The breakdown suffered by Real Club Victoria YACOVI in the last regatta in July has moved Jorge Vega's crew away from the top positions they enjoyed during a good stretch of the league. Helenio Hoyos, José Cruz, Josue Caballero, Cristián Saborit, Alejandro Rodríguez, Gabriel Rupérez, Kevin Rosales, Antonio San Martín are the components of a crew that revalidates, with their skipper Adrián Morales at the helm, their title of Insular Champions for the third year consecutive. Adrián highlighted “the unity of the team” as one of the values that distinguishes his crew and that has led them to win the championship. "This is a boat in which it is not discussed" has commented Adrián on more than one occasion Next Saturday, September 24, will be held, with all the cards played, the last regatta of the Insular Championship. Starting at 09:00 in the morning, the crews will raise their boats to the La Puntilla esplanade - above the Victoria sailing school - so that fans and curious people can watch the process of starting the wafers. Without a doubt, a great tribute to CRI-RICOH and to the sport of Latin Sailing Waffles. Waffle regattas, five-meter boats with two equal tips at the stern and bow, are common on the islands of Gran Canaria, Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. Las Palmas de Gran Canaria has 7 boats that have starred throughout the year in the Insular Championship with regattas and hits on the stretch of coast from Las Canteras to El Confital Traditionally, Las Canteras beach hosted the Barquillos de Vela Latina regattas among the fishermen of La Puntilla. These wafers evolved on the rising coast of the city, becoming the current lateen sail boats On the coast of Las Canteras are young sailors who maintain the tradition and every weekend they compete in the Confital bay in the different regattas organized by the Island Delegation of Barquillos de Gran Canaria Although the Insular Championship ends next Saturday, this year the Canary Islands Championship will be held in Conejeras waters the last weekend of October. At this event, the wafers of Fuerteventura, Lanzarote and Gran Canaria will meet to compete in the annual Canarian Champion Trophy of Barquillos de Vela Latina Canaria that has been in the hands of the 'Furia Nissan' of Lanzarote since last year FacebookTwitterLinkedinGoogle+Pinterest Images OFFICIAL SPONSOR: Centro de Reprografía e Informática de Las Palmas, SL CENTRAL OFFICE c / Lomo La Plana, corner of Lomo San Lázaro 35019 Las Palmas de Gran Canaria Tel: 902 370 390 Fax: 928 279 751 SAT: 902 370 400 SOUTH ZONE Avda.
