Zandvoort, Over the weekend of 20 & 21 of August the NAM REM RACE was sailed.

This weekend consists traditionally out of one day long distance racing + one day of Olympic course racing.

The weather forecast looked promising and indeed this weekend proved to be an excellent sailing weekend. On Saturday during the long distance race at the start it was blowing 18/20 knts and slowly decreasing over the day. A beautiful upwind leg brought the fleet from Zandvoort to Noordwijk/Katwijk to go around some course marks. After Katwijk the heading became the NAM buoy which is located 90 degrees offshore approx. 10 miles at sea. From that mark heading back straight to Noordwijk and back to Zandvoort.

After 2 hours and 29 minutes 29 seconds it was Peter Vink with Gerhard van Geest with their NACRA F20 Carbon that finished first. Followed by the brothers Boers, also sailing on a NACRA F20 Carbon 2 hours 29 minutes and 54 seconds. Third over the line were Gunnar Larsen & Sam Frank with again, a NACRA F20 Carbon in a time of 2 hours 32 minutes and 54 seconds. The first F18 and coming in fourth over the line where Coen de Koning & Thijs Visser with their NACRA F18 Infusion 22 minutes after the first finisher.
