The Copa del Rey regatta , which included the World Championship in the Gazprom Swan 60 class, ended on August 9 in Palma de Mallorca. For the second year in a row the champion’s title went to the St. Petersburg team Bronenosec. Silver went to Spirit of Europe with a predominantly Russian crew. Fourth and fifth places were also taken by our compatriots Petite Flamme and Tsar Peter from Gazprom Youth Sailing Challenge. Only China’s Windward managed to dilute the Russian final and win bronze.
