The 2026 Flying Fifteen Spanish Championships unfold in Majorca, featuring four races over two days. Thirteen boats compete, with last year's champion James Haugh absent due to work in the USA. Returning champions Patrick and Vincent Harris, fresh off a strong performance in the Rolex Middle Sea Race, race in their classic yacht 'Mowgli'.
Day 1 begins with little wind, causing a one-hour delay. The race committee sets a new course as conditions improve to a steady SE 12-14 knots. Victor Perez in 3598 'Ffuga' claims victory in the first race, followed by Josh Banks in 3831 'Ospray' and John Walker in 4122 'No Way Jose'.
In Race 2, Patrick and Vincent dominate, finishing first, while Victor secures second and Ralph Hennig and son Ivo take third. The competition remains fierce as the fleet battles for positioning in the final race of the day.
