Manroland Tornado World Championship 2010 – Day 1
Day One of the Worlds started with a bang, great wind conditions and a
perfect three races. The wind conditions were 15-17 knots gusting 20 at the
start, it died slightly at the top mark in the 2nd race but soon came back.
Meaning the Tornados had a brilliant day sailing the waters of the Lubeck
Bay.
The first two races were reasonably clean starts but on the third race a
number of boats were OCS but continued without realising. At the start of
the second race an incident involving an Italian team that parked just off
the line and a German team saw the later going up the back and resting the
bows on the Italian’s trampoline.
By the end of the third race the wind was much stronger with a fantastic
downwind leg for the competitors.
Great to see so many teams out on the start line including mixed crews with
ladies at the helm.
There have been a few swims and breakages but everyone is working to get the
boats fixed for Day 2.
The mixed German crew of Roland and Nahid Gaebler are currently leading the
fleet followed by Greeks Danny Paschalides and Kostas Trigonis then Ozzies
Brett and Ryan.
The AGM was also held last night with lots of sailors keen to get involved
and help on the Committee and do their bit to try to get the Tornados back
into the Olympics.
