8 bullets for Heemskerk out of 9 races. Only Chris Field managed to take one from him, and hold 2nd place until breaking a foil. Sjoerd Hoeskstra finished 2nd and Erwin Kerstens sailing a Vision equipped with Exploder rudders/foils ended 3rd, putting the Catamaran Parts design on the podium road again, and following their fellow builders on to the flying path.
Even the Nikita was upgraded by Thomas Paasch to win the Nordics this month.

Mischa and Sjoerd on DNAs. 
Still pending a match up between Mischa
, Nathan & Ashby in foiling conditions to see who is the current Master A Flight Pilot.

A-Cat Belgian sailor, Michel, reported on Kerstens / Vision and also took the videos below plus some good photos.
