29er European Championship Sopot POL 2012

Very shifty and windy conditions on the Baltic Sea gave all 99 teams a run for their money on the first day of the 29er European Championship in Sopot, Poland. With the fleet split into 4 flights, the Race Committee was able to complete 3 races a piece for all flights giving all the teams a chance to experience racing in the conditions provided just off the beaches of Sopot.

With blue skies in the morning, flat water and wind of 15-20 knots with puffs to 30 were recorded but by the 11am start, the two courses were reporting 17 knots with oscillating breezes. A few general recalls were spread across the two race courses, but generally the races were run in a total of 4 hours with excellent management. As the day continued, the RC wind reports ranged from 6-22 knots.

At the days end, 29er veteran sailors Denmark’s Ida Marie Baad Nielsen and Marie Thusgaad Olsen lead with 4 points over Marit llena and Oriol Mahiques of Spain. Katja Salskov-Iversen and Christian Christfort Gormsen, also from Denmark sit in 3rd overall with 6 points.
