An exceptional weekend allowed 5 races - 2 races in front of Costa Nova and 3, on Sunday in the Sea - to be made and to make Francisco Cálão/António Pereira as the new Nationa Champions.
Very steady winds took a fleet of 10 boats to the water, where the figh was constant for the first places.
The presence of Andre van Veen/Jeroen van Veen from Holland mixed things up a little bit, but this team could not beat the brand new POR 56 - Fifty-Six - endong in 2nd place. In National terms, Gonçalo Silva (POR54) recovered from a poorer first day, and reached 2nd position, followed by Nélson Machado/João Cavaz (POR51) by just 1 point difference. Pedro Ré and Salustiano Ribeiro finished 4th with the same number of points. José Monteiro/Nuno Monteiro, Renato Conde/Jorge Paulo, Rafael Lopes/José Carvalho and Manuel Zeferino/Jorge Saldanha (sailing Cassandra) finished outside the podium.
