F18 Dutch Nats 2013: Oskar Zeekant & Sanne Van Hek Champs


A mixed crew winning one of the most prestige and tough F18 events around it is a great statement for the Class and current Olympic format. Winning over Booth, Larsen and many other top guns is even more remarkable. Although Oskar is not stranger to podiums (2nd LA 2012 Worlds, 1st Texel 2013 both with Charlie Begemann).  This time with Sanne Van Hek , Oskar is positioning himself right now as one of the best and fastest sailors in the performance beachcat scene. ANd what to say about Sanne? Hat off to her for showing again girls crewing have no handicap whatsoever, all the contrary can be said by now…

    Gunnar could have been a bit more tactical in that last race!
