2nd IOM L'Ampolla Trophy 2026: Valverde wins in light airs

25 sailors, five races in little wind, HMS on day 1 and single fleet on day 2. Win for José Valverde (ESP 48).

Club Nàutic L'Ampolla hosted the 2nd IOM L'Ampolla Trophy on 7–8 November 2026, a Level 2 event counting for the FCV / IOMCAT ranking. 25 sailors took part, with a notable presence of fleets from outside Catalonia — especially the Valencian coast, Andalusia and Murcia — raising the overall standard.

Weather was very poor on both days: little or almost no wind. Even so, five races were sailed. Day 1 was raced in heats under the HMS system; day 2, with fewer boats on the line, continued as a single fleet.

Special congratulations go to the Valencian coast and Andalusian fleets for the competitiveness they brought.

Podium: 1st José Valverde (ESP 48, Mar de Almería); 2nd Guillermo Beltrí (ESP 47, RCN Torrevieja); 3rd Alfonso Buendía (ESP 69, Náutico Costablanca).

The full standings (race scores, discards and HMS heats) appear below in the same format as on the regatta page, and can also be downloaded as PDF from there.

Congratulations to all competitors and to Club Nàutic L'Ampolla.
