F18 North Americans 2023: Gallyas & Urritia lead
–
F18 North Americans 2023, Day 3. Four more races held at Burlington Beach Catamaran Club and the Chilean crew regains the lead. Chileans Pablo Gallyas & Isidora Urrutia with 3,1,1,2 now lead ahead of Froeb – Maraing by 2pts.
Finally we could find a photo of the leaders, who are sailing a C2 / Nxt Gen DS lent by Paulo Gabella. This C2 is for sale in Canada, looks a fast platform to have surely for a good price vs all the latest brand new options…
That’s beauty of the F18 Class. You travel abroad, get a decent used boat and you can lead a major event, of course you need to be as good as Pablo & Isidora too!
