Zeilvereniging Zuidlaardermeer, August 30 – 31

Saturday was sunny with a few clouds and temperatures in the mid 20° C. The weather invited everyone to 4 races in 10-15 kn, increasing over the day with gusts up to 20 kn.
Sunday started overcast with a few rainy spells in the morning, in the course of the day that changed to a very sunny afternoon which made prize giving and packing a nice exercise. The four races on Sunday were sailed in 15 kn with gusts up to 19kn, decreasing slightly over the day. As often done at the dutch nationals, every competitor got a souvenir, in this case a nice piece of Gouda cheese and a Nut cake.
The club again proved to be a very welcoming host with good food and very friendly volunteers.
Racing in the southerly winds was mainly about finding the right side for the first big shift, sometimes that was the left side, but mainly the right side payed. Playing the shifts through the middle also worked sometimes. Stefan de Vries won all races convincingly.
