Nacra 17 Worlds 2022: Tita & Banti
Nacra 17 Worlds 2022 went to who other tha Rugger Tita & Caterina Banti. 14 bullets in 16 races, what else to add. Just watch the Live Stream replay above of Day 5. Congrats again to Andy Rice and crew for such a good broadcast.
Second place overall for the youth Italians Ugolini & Giubilei while the Finnish Kurtbay & Keskinen climbed to the podium in the Medal Race held in light winds.
Happy to see Mateo & Euge progressing, several races in the top 5 pack on the water, consistency will bring the young Argies to start fighting for the top 5 overall.
Billy Besson getting some good speed, we expect more improvement in the future, Billy knows how to foil from A-Cats and even C-Cats, and there is a sailor deserving a second chance is him.
Long time Catsailor and Super Mom Sarah Newberry sailing with David Liebengber were the top US team and managed to grab a bullet from Tita.

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
