Scotland’s Grant Gordon sailing Team Louise, crewed by Ruairidh Scott, James Williamson and Alex Warren, claimed the King Juan Carlos Trophy for 2019.
Second place went to Hugo Stenbeck sailing Sophie Racing with Martin Westerdahl and Bernardo Freitas.
Pieter Heerema sailing Troika with Lars Hendriksen and George Leonchuck took the remaining step on the podium.
The week’s top Corinthian performers were Miguel Magalhaes (POR56) and his team of Jorge Pinheiro de Melo and Jose Magalhaes, who gave some of the pros a good run for their money.
The fight for second and third place in the Corinthian Division came down to a single point with second place ultimately going to Guy Gelis (BEL88), who narrowly beat Manuel Rocha (POR47).
The remaining events in the Dragon European Cup series, are the Dragon Gold Cup in Medemblik in June, for which over 100 boats are already entered, and the very special Dragon 90th Anniversary Gala Regatta in Sanremo in October, for which some 200 boats are expected.
