Williams tops Qualifying as Jablonski squeaks in

Langenargen, Germany (18 May 2013): “It’s not normally like this” – a phrase regularly heard in sailing circles in reference to ‘unusual weather’, but for once this has worked in the favour of competitors at Match Race Germany, the opening event of the Alpari World Match Racing Tour. After a brief lull in the middle of the day the wind filled in this afternoon and the sun came out allowing the race committee to complete Qualifying and start the Quarter Finals.

Trio tied at the top
Langenargen, Germany (17 May 2013): Lake Constance remained well behaved for day two of Match Race Germany, the opening event of the 2013 Alpari World Match Racing Tour. A light sub-10 knot northwesterly blowing down the lake allowed Rudi Magg’s race management team to hold eight flights, leaving all 12 teams having sailed nine races of this Qualifying stage of the event.

Hopes for the final day of racing at The Great Cup’s first ever event, the GC32 Austria Cup within Allianz Traunsee Week presented by BMW, were to complete an eight race round robin before a weather front rolled across Lake Traunsee.

Fuente info Icarus Sailing Media

The 59th Star Trophy Urnersee came to an end today with no races sailed during this final day. The rain forced the wind to drop dramatically and things did not change until the time limit was over. So with two races sailed during the three days of the championship, it was the Swiss duo of Jurg Wittich and Christian Traschel to finish on top in a tie with last year’s winners the Germans Philip Rotermund with crew Nils Hollweg. In third overall was the Swiss boat of Jürg Ryffel and Alex Gouda.
