On 16 September there was another manifestation, we are talking about the National Championship boats J80 class, at the end of which was awarded the national title for the current year.
Essentially three days were devoted to craft J80 who faced eight trials, each crew involved besides the primordial challenge, was faced with during the race several problems and difficulty doing therefore rise expectations that him. A thrilling race so fascinating.
In this race technique and competition were the focus also because of challenges faced by crews.
