The US Fleet getting ready for the 2022 Worlds to be held in Houston, TX. Ben Hall won the Classics Division and future World Champ Ravi Parent dominated the Foiling fleet.
Ben has been spending plenty of time gathering charters for the Worlds, and he got me 4 boats for my Argie mates. The guy is a sailing Legend, continues to perform at top level, and also works hard in the background to put more boats in coming A-Cat Worlds: www.aclassworlds.com , current entries here.
For this weekend Helly Hansen Regatta I have reports on 10-15knots excellent conditions with Ravi Parent (D3/Glaser) foiling around the course, a step above the rest of the foiling fleet. Ben Hall on a Classic D3 and Glaser the mighty Glaser DS too.
Top ten for both divs. 40 boats total. Complete results here – Later more updates. Read official report by Laura Muma at Sailing World here
