Aker Kvaerner (Askoey Seilforening)

OCS. We were a bit too eager to start, and was therefore disqualified. The wind increased from a mere 6m/s to 16-17m/s in wery short time, and we took some damage to our genua1. Results are available here.

Stord Rundt (Bergens Seilforening)

9-11/6-06

First leg: 2nd in our class, 3d over all. Unable to get enough crew, me and Dag decided to sail this race double handed. We started with just the main, logging 9 knots running with the wind. Later the wind decreased, and we raised the light spinnaker. By then we were second last. Early morning on the 10th the wind shifted from north to south (1-3m/s). Running towards the wind we could put our new CA sails to use. In just a matter of hours we managed to catch up with the other boats, and PASS them. The highlight this early saturday morning was when we passed a X-3/4 tonner logging at least 0,5 knots more than them.
