Report below sent by Marco Radman winner of the Classic Fleet racing a Scheuer & Oxxo DS mainsail.
Bob Baier won Foilers on board a D3 / Bryt. The crossover within the F18 & A Class in Italy is similar to what we have in Arg, years of pushing for all that can to sail both Classes, and happy to see many racing them like Marco, Gianni and Bob. Lambi has migrated now only A, but we will get him back in the F too.

Worlds coming soon at Toulon. Next year A-Cat Worlds will be held in Punta Ala, schedule your calendar for that venue and Costa Brava, Spain, for the F18 one.

ITALIAN CHAMPIONSHIP A CLASS 2023

From 25 to 27 August the Italian Class A Catamaran Championship was held at the Donoratico Yachting Club (Livorno). 22 boats in the “Classic” division and 14 in the “Open” division.

On Friday, only one race held with very light winds from the NW quadrant, on Saturday two races with winds around 8 knots from the NW, while on Sunday three races on a strong day with winds of up to 20 knots and formed waves typical of the area with strong Scirocco. Marco Radman prevails on “Classic” ahead of Manuel Vaccari and Andrea Ruffini, while in the “Open” Bob Baier (GER) ahead of the first of the Italians Giovanni Fantasia and Lamberto Cesari.
