Nacras 17 @Semaine Olympic Francaise
Photos: Breschi/ FFVoile. Billy Besson get used to race Hydros foiling C at Plymouth so he couldn´t help attemping same flights with the N17… When Coen de Koning was confirmed for the Dutch team I imagine they would make him helm as Visser surely is a better crew all the way.
