Lince Segundo wins XIII Gourmet Race of Teulada-Moraira

A sea bass that decides the first prize

Lince Segundo prevailed in the thirteenth edition of this competition that combines sailing and cooking, thanks to a dish centred on sea bass. Among the participating vessels, five were placed in the top positions of the classification.

Second place went to Barbate, crewed by Fernando Tramoyeres and Alicia Carbonell, whilst third place on the podium was taken by Alzira Nodriza, with Agustín Gregori and Nina Benedito in command.

Meteorological incidents during the day

Rain that fell on Friday forced the welcome cocktail to be moved to the terrace of the sailing club's restaurant. The next day, an orange alert issued in the morning kept the vessels moored as a precaution until it was lifted; meanwhile, the organisers distributed cooking ingredients among the participants in the Gourmet Race Village.
