A-Class at Kieler Woche
The A-Class Worlds is coming in August 13-20 at Denmark www.a-catworlds2011.dk
Many were racing at Kieler Woche and the Aussies are showing their class, the young Jack Benson was first followed by the experience of Andrew Landenberger.
Landy will be racing the F18 Worlds at Lake Balaton too, after two years of absence.
Good for the F18 and A-Class to separate their Worlds this time… more chance to getting sailors racing both.
Experienced A-Class rider is requested for a special challenging racing task at the A Worlds. Mail me directly at catsailingnews gmail com
Waiting for a Tornado Class report to publish on Kieler Woche. No images no nothing beyond video clips from Kieler Woche website- Media page not working. Such a big event without available info is a joke.
Edit: A short A-class video from Kiel , thanks to Thilo Keller for the link, check the subnormal way an unidentified dinghy (to me) capsize, that’s sailing for sure… and ‘beachcats are no serious racing’.
