(machine translated in 2023) Cool Shoe Crossing. Strong wind, so a super cool race. Finally a race with enough wind. 6.0m racing sails flying over the water. Only the rear buoy was too close to the dike, there was hardly any wind. All in all, no bad races: 11th out of 50.

Enough wind, so the 5.9 with the Thommen275. Set ran super fast, but is tiring sailing. Only the gybing didn't work at all. To 4 heats finally pause. Had performed poorly in my opinion: Missed 1st heat. 2nd heat 23rd, stopped at the start and also at the buoys too much still and fell. 3rd heat 6th. Good start, and only fell 2 times. 4th heat somewhere in the back. |

During the break the Skate packed. Then I can wrap the shackles around and stand. I'm sure that will make a big difference. Starts went much better now. 5th heat: Good start, not 1x cases: 13th 6th heat: Super start, all planned: 9th 7th heat: Nice start, all buoys not planned: 11th 8th heat: Super start, all buoys standing, 1x not planned: 8th Then stayed on the water for a while to jump. |
