F18 Europeans 2018 @Costa Brava: June 29-July 7
Photo by 2017 Denmark Worlds. – 2018 F18 Europeans are going to be the first major event with top Europeans teams all using Decksweeper mainsails. We’ve seen a good matcup at St Barts plus the Australian Nats 2018, but this will be a perfect preview of coming 2018 Worlds to be held at Sarasota.
On the Europeans participants we already have Burvill (Edge) , Booth , Paschalidis (Scorpion) Boulogne & Northtrop (Cirrus R2) registered. Full Entry List here.
Nacra teams, Gonzalez Smith & Heuser will be attending, possibly with an MKIII, we expect some other Europeans Nacra riders to be testing the platform too, towards Sarasota.
