  
Three men in a boat ...
Three Nosepasa patinairos joined the 63 competitors from
Catalunia, Andalucia, Valencia and France to sail the European Championship Patin a
Vela at the Club Maritim Torredembarra. We received
a warm welcome from the club, federation, government and town representatives.
In fact we once again were very happy to be able to sail in what has become our
Catalonian training-base.
After three days of strenuous sailing, we saw us ranked on the
22° ( Bernard ) , 29° ( Gert) and at the end of 40 ( Hans ). Bernard
took a strong start on day 1, with 15+ knots wind but had a disastrous second
day. Gert was best in the final race : with a very light zephyr and a
shortened course he finished 14° before Bernard (19). Hans was unlucky
to start too early in the final race ! The results of some sailors were sometimes
surprising : another proof of the difficult circumstances encountered on the
waters of Torredembarra : current and counter-current, wind shifts, ....
Quim "Merlot" Esteba sailed the most consisting series and
became European Champion 2007.
Every evening, the youth of the Club made a splendid bbq,
another fact which made this VII° European Championship unforgettable...
