AC45 at Plymouth: Welcome to the Club
Cascais was a walk on the park, and it was all good luck for the new teams. But as we all know at +20knots things start to get real, and we’ll see many more if Plymouth maintans these conditions next week.As I always tell newcomers, upto 12knots you can drive the F18 quite comfortably with you Laser/monohull experience, above that you’d better hang on and wish for the best, until gathering lots of hours on the water.
This Cup will be held in San Francisco, hope many can get due high wind experience by the time.
Good attitude on GC Skipper, Vasilij Zbogar, that with his crew did a good job at Cascais improving in each race. Now with the obtained AC45 Capsize Club Membership they’ve gathered key experience for the future. Photo: Gilles Martin-Raget – GC being towed to upright the 45
I just heard that my great sailing friend and former CEO of Hobiecat Europe has passed. May The endless oceans…
...Report was sent by an F18 Sailor, if you want Hobies reported send your own, we'll publish as usual. Cheers.
Looks like in your report the Hobies are not really present. Suggest to rewrite the article.
Thanks for the great report Wik. Great battle.
If I correctly read the results the overall winner this year is a Hobie16
