Today shifty winds, foiling coniditions for the top guys only. Scott Anderson (Nikita C boards & no winglets) reached the windward mark first. George Reutter second (Nikita C boards too). Mischa around 8th, started pushing at the buoy, on the offset mark he was already speeding like a train, after that it was a total kill, Glenn passed the top mark ahead Mischa but got behind later.
In the other fleet Jason dominated with Sacha Wallmer (G7) , Woody Cope (Nikita) & Mathias Dietz (G6) following.
Glenn has modified his sail to match Mischa’s development. Previous post: Mischa & Glenn sequence at 2nd windward mark. Tomorrow first official race.
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
