For the season finale the blu26 fleet met at the Zurich Yacht Club for the ‘Herbstpreis II’. In beautiful late summer weather 4 races could be held. With two bullets out of these four races, the youngster team of Philippe Guyer and the Looser Brothers paved the way to the win of this regatta. With equal points followed, but second ranked, Voodoo Child could secure the first podium of the season. The podium was completed by Beat Müller on blunote with only one point less than the victors.
Thanks to a 4th place at the ‘Herbstpreis II’ and more importantly a very consistent season, team hazel was able to win the annual blu26 ranking and secure the bluboats cup 2015. Already with the victory at the class championship in Thun they showed their ambitions and never gave the lead out of hands throughout the whole blu26 season. Congratulations team hazel! With only 2 points behind blunote secured 2nd place in the annual ranking. With 4 podiums they showed the most consistent season of all teams. Giachen Duos, last years winner of the bluboats cup finished 3rd.
