Olympics: Foiling the Nacra 17 at Rio by Mathias Buhler & Nico Aragones
Mathias Buhler sailing with Nathalie Brugger have achieved a 3rd place in 2013 Nacra 17 Worlds and they have established themselves as a strong contender. Nathalie has suffered an injury and Buhler (Arg-Swiss sailor racing for SUI) called our best crew, Nico Aragones (F18, 49er & AC45 experience) to help him with training and settings on the N17.
It seems the work & training is going rather well judging from this sequence… don’t you think?

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
