Musto Skiff Open at Primavela, Switzerland

by Dominique Wälchli 11 May 2006 08:16 BST 29-30 April 2006

Already early in the morning some crazy Musto Skiff sailors shouted their trim instructions all over the place. This is exactly what makes this class a real hit. We have now already nineteen active sailors.

The strength of the fleet in Switzerland has increased tremendously by the visit of our world champion Richard Stenhouse and his charming wife Kit. On the other side the wind was not up to standards. But anyway it was not as bad as last autumn... the fog was missing.

The racing organisation of our friends in Cham was as usual just great, many thanks. As said above, very, very light winds which allowed everybody to have some good places from time to time. If not, I would not have been condemned to write this report... A big hug to the Owald women part of the family for the great drinks. As usual Roger stood in the forefront but everybody knew who really made the work. This has to be said since only expert eyes did see the difference. I am looking already for the next great events (Alpsee and of course Lago d’Iseo).

Overall Results:
