(Badalona, Spain)- José Maria Van der Ploeg (a Spanish Olympic Gold
Medallist and J/80 World Champion) and his crew of NAUTICA WATCHES,
reconquer the title of Champions of the Catalonia J/80 class after
winning 4 of the 6 races held in the waters off Badalona. Second place
overall was BRIBON MOVISTAR skippered by Marc Bertrand Antonio (another
J/80 World Champion), with the NACEX Team completing the podium.In this edition of the regatta, organized by the Sailing Club Badalona, a new category called "SPORT" was introduced. The basic idea is to create a formula to promote the kind of sailing that allows lower-level amateur teams to approach the world of high competition and compete together with the world’s elite sailors that are leading the Spanish J/80 fleet.
