Generali Horizon wins the Women's Cup

This weekend took place the Women's Cup, a 100% female regatta that promotes the values of the NGO Plan, for the defense of the values of sharing and gender. It took place during the International Women's Day, which took place this Sunday, March 8th.

The start of this 5 e Women's Cup was given this Saturday, March 7, by Antoine Donne, deputy sports Pornichet and Luc Pillot, President of the sailing club APCC with the presence of Benoit Gilles of the company Generali. In all, 28 crews took the start of the women's regatta. Divided into two groups, they rotated in the early afternoon. The race takes place on a course of several buoys, on which it is necessary to be the fastest.

Distribution of roles

The crews are composed of 5 people who all have a role to play on board: N° 1 for the front post of the boat, two dedicated to the front sails, a trimmer and mainsail and a helmswoman. A beautiful weather âeuros sun and light wind âeuros allowed to launch several races.

Generali Horizon winner

On Sunday, a persistent fog did not delay the launch of the races. The Rond Or brings together the first 14 crews at the end of the day on Saturday. They had two races to decide between them. The first part of the competition was quite difficult to conduct due to lack of wind, but the second round, the Silver Rounds, were able to benefit from better conditions.

Thus, it is Genrali Horizon, skippered by Isabelle Joschke, who takes the 1st place re place in this regatta. The crew had already won on Saturday. The award ceremony took place in the presence of the Mayor of Pornichet, Mr. Pelleteur, and Jean-Marc Bloyet, secretary general of the Ligue Voile Pays de la Loire.
