Regatta clinic on Lake Garda

Training Gardasee Versuch

The 4th edition of the blu26 winter regatta training was again held on Lake Garda in Acquafresca. The training, coached by Christian Scherrer and Stephan Eder, was attended by 7 teams from Germany and Switzerland. For the first time a all female team, lead by Corinne Meyer stood their ground among the majority of male teams.
The very strong winds, up to 35 knots on the first day, demanded the full skill of all of the participants.
Various trainings sessions were sailed, where the boat handling and the boat settings could be tested under the eagle eyes of Christian and Stephan and later analyzed by video.

Besides all the time on the water, also the fine food of the region could be discovered on different occasions during the social events.
The Bluboats / Sailingcenter Team would like to thank all participants and is looking forward to next year!
