'Severine' Crowned Winner of the VIII Puerto Sherry Classic Week

‘Severine’ Completes Epic Comeback to Win the Spanish Cup at Puerto Sherry

The VIII Puerto Sherry Classic Week-Pedro Bores Memorial concluded with a thrilling finale in the Bay of Cádiz. After three days of intense competition, the ‘Severine’, owned by Gonzalo Botín, claimed overall victory in the JCH Spanish Cup following a masterful performance in the final race.

A Brilliant Final Day of Racing

Sunday provided perfect sailing conditions, with a steady 12-knot westerly breeze allowing the fleet to show its full potential during a 10-mile coastal course. The inclusion of a buoy mark off Vistahermosa beach offered spectators a spectacular view of these historic vessels under full sail.

The event was defined by extreme competitiveness, with a different winner for each day: Gipsy (Friday), Jaque Mate (Saturday), and Severine (Sunday).

Final Podiums and Category Winners

The consistency of the ‘Severine’—posting 4th, 2nd, and 1st place finishes—proved decisive in overcoming the ‘Jaque Mate’ of Sergio Llorca, which led the standings entering the final day but ultimately placed second overall.

Key Results:

  • JCH Spanish Cup: Overall Winner, ‘Severine’.
  • Época Category: Winner, ‘Severine’ (Real Club Marítimo de Santander).
