(As translated from the event website: www.nauticopuntalagoa.com)

Denmark, Sweden, France A and B will be chosen France to meet in the semifinals of the Caixanova Women Match Race, which counts towards the World Circuit this Olympic specialty is organizing in the Ria de Vigo, Club Náutico Punta Lagoa. A team of Spain, the Royal Spanish Sailing Federation, with Margarita Cameselle Vigo stayed in front the gates of doing something historic for the Spanish sailing, as might be among the first four in an event of Grade 1, but not likely to defeat the Dutch crew Zuiderbad Klaartje left him in the position to gamble on a letter to France Anne Le Berr A, winner of the 2008 and world number five, and even when Vigo was first place to Ecuador from deciding game was overcome at last by the finery. Spain 7 victories matched with Holland and France B, but since he lost his encounters with both teams had to settle for sixth.

The third day was a carbon copy of the previous two: wind early in the morning in the Vigo estuary, to a halt at noon and again at the edge of this star at four in the afternoon. In the opening matches of the regular season remaining, surprise at eleven in the morning when Italy Cristina Monina was imposed on one of the big favorites: Anne Le Berre. The trouble is that Cameselle then tied with the Netherlands, ... And with Denmark and Sweden are classified and one of the teams from France (Bossard and Le Berre) reached the decisive match was Spain A-France A. The pre-start was a struggle unspeakable fresh northwest wind, which was the best part is the patron Vigo came across at the time of departure. In the first upwind leg Cameselle girls were superior and the windward mark between the two ships had two lengths away. But the worst blow came in the first downwind leg, in which French veteran of them worth to beat the Spanish, who never gave up and engaged in a fight to the finish line, where two feet separated the two boats. Best of all to observe that our representatives were at a peak, and if work continues on this path we will reach 2012 with a great crew who chooses everything. Excellent work being done by the Paul Maes, Antonio Otero, coaches crew in Spain. Also very good job of the other Spanish crew, which led to Tamara Echegoyen logrbaba four wins in their matches.
