Incredible sailing Conditions for this weekend gave a warm welcome to sailors from Brazil, USA, Italy and Argentina, Winds from SE140 12 to 25 knots granted extreme actions shots for everybody. Soling Class was invited to theis "keelboat" event. International Olivos Week was also the centenial Celebration of the class in Argentina, many star sailors from past years and World Champions of Soling and J24 where invited. Club Nautico Olivos, house of the Star Class in Argentina and its Race comitee made an outstanding work during the 6 races that PRO´s Federico Ambrus and Antonio Gneri started. Julio Labandeira and Hernan Celedoni proved once again that they are the team to beat in the River Plate, Fabian Mac Gowan was turbocharged with 8430 and Gustavo Warburg and the new assistant to 18th district secretary Maximo Smith showed that being regular always pays off in this mighty fleet. A few masts down for Admar Gonzaga from Brasilia and Federico Calegari from Buenos Aires and multiple DNF´s though the hard conditions, Alberto Zanetti and Gustavo Warburg both broke their rudders, Zanetti had to give up the championship after race 1 and step over his Soling to win the championship with three bullets in a row in the Soling Class. Brasilian Team with all time friends of our fleet Dino Pascolato and Gastao Brun had some bad luck with sails and halyard problems that relayed them to 6th and 11th place, Henry Boening, Pascolato´s crew drived 7000 kms just to race 3 days in our river and celebrating 100 years with us!! Tomas Hornos, from Boston Fleet showed some smooth sailing speed with uncle Carlos #7228 while Luis Bustelo onboard Earline #5235 was the only woodie still racing in our fleet. StarClass Argentina Closed a great saling year with new young authoritys and many proyects, see you all next year! |
