Getting a renewed drive this year with some top notch teams attending. Nacra sent Ravi Parent and Colby-Colman to prepare an assault for the 2025 Worlds in NED.
Two races held today, Parent-Weiskichel scored a pair of bullets and Colby-Colman 2nd in both. These team sailing the Nacra Evo.
Colby reports: “Light wind today. Started the Nacra 15 first. Same course. They were half way up first work when the breeze shifted 90’ and increased to 20 knots. Our start and their race abandoned. Next start in 12 knots. Varied betwween 6 -12 knots. Patchy shifty conditions. Flat water 15’c. Close racing with us.”
