MATADOR KING OF THE BAY OF PALMA

A solid performance on the final day of the 2010 Copa Del Rey delivers Matador her third King’s Cup.

Bribon decides the battle with Cristabella for 2nd in her favour.

So Cristabella 3rd.

CAM, the brand new BC52, an IRC Racer based on the hull of the ETNZ TP52 with less displacement, more draft and righting moment, and more sailarea than the TP52’s, helmed by Sar Don Felipe De Borbon finishes the event in 4th place.

King Harald V of Norway with Fram XVI wins the battle of the “older” TP52’s: 5th overall.

Just ahead of Tony Langley with Weapon Of Choice: 6th.

Then Aifos, the Spanish Navy TP52: 7th.

And the more offshore orientated Lucky of Bryon Ehrhart (USA) in 8th.

All in all a very good result in a fleet of 17 competitors, showing the strength of the TP52 crews and boats.
