Great to see racing start again in the Netherlands! Thanks to RS Aero NL for their summary report of a breezy day at Giesbeek...

 

On Saturday, July 25, 2020 we were welcome at WSV Giesbeek and we sailed our first game of 2020! The 2 day July Regatta was scaled down to 1 day with 5 RS Aeros on our start line. Johan Guillemyn travelled all the way from Leuven, Belgium (213km!); so it was an International event too!

 

The circumstances were very changeable from sun, rain, little to moderate / powerful wind between 8 kts - > 20 kts in the showers. There were two starts, first the Solos and second the RS Aeros with the Lasers.

 

At Race 3 and 4 it was varied with breeze and although there was quite a fight in the middle of space 2-3-4, the position ended up quite the same.

 

Personally it became clear during the last race that we were out of training these past few months, so: more sailing!! After the end, we had a nice drink on the beautiful terrace of this friendly club at a safe distance. The results were announced and the prizes awarded.

 

Once again and very successful game at WSV Giesbeek!
