The Rowing Federation of the Region of Murcia will present the candidacy of the Port of Cartagena and the Los Nietos Yacht Club to host the Llaut and Remo de Mar 2020 Spanish Championships. This initiative has the support of the Department of Sports of the Cartagena City Council and the Port Authority.
Cartagena is closely linked to the practice of water sports.The history of rowing competition in Cartagena and the Region of Murcia, begins to be written in 1912 coinciding with the inauguration of the Real Club de Regattas de Cartagena, where rowing and rowing teams other water sports began their journey.
It is in the Port of Cartagena where the rise of this sport modality is lived, where the Navy participates and organizes several national trainera regattas in the Port of Cartagena.
The announcement of the nominations was made on Sunday October 20 at the presentation and voting of the Trainera, a traditional rowing boat.
It has been restored within the recovery program of traditional rowing boats in which the Port Authority of Cartagena collaborates.
At present, the crew of a trawler is composed of thirteen rowers plus a skipper.
The rowers are distributed in six rows of two rowers plus the bow rower, which goes only on its previous bench.
On each bench, except in the bow, a rower paddles by port and another by starboard, making it "on its back", that is, looking aft.
The skipper, who usually stands in the stern facing forward, is the one who runs the boat with the rowing skipper.
