Turn- und Sportverein Schilksee von 1947, 23 – 26 September 2010

Report: Terry Curtis with additions by Norbert Petrausch

54 boats from 9 countries competed at the German OK Dinghy National Championships hosted by TSV-Schilksee at Kiel.
Competitors from BEL, DEN, GBR, IRL, NZL, POL and RSA joined the german fleet.
The opening ceremony was sponsored by the Kiel Public Utility Company, including free beer.

The event was predominantely held in light offshore breezes, with significant shifts making for some Challenging sailing. GBR’s Nick Craig was leading after day one with a 4 point cushion from Greg Wilcox NZL who was 1 point clear from IRL’s Tim Goodbody. The days 3rd scheduled race was abandoned due to the failing wind.

3 of the scheduled 4 races were completed on day 2, with conditions again very light & tricky. Craig sailed consistantly to maintain his lead although Wilcox had managed to close within a point with Tomasz Gaj from Poland moving into third and Goodbody 4th.

The forecast rain had arrived by Sunday & with it a decent onshore breeze building to around 20 knots, kicking up quite a confused sea. The fleet set out to the racecourse with the prospect of 3 tough windy races to shake things up a bit. Tim Goodbody showed he meant business to take the bullet in spite of seriously overstanding the windward mark on the second beat, Craig took second with Poland’s Pawel Pawlaczyk in 3rd & Terry Curtis from GBR 4th. Disappointingly the Committee boat was having difficulty holding anchor in the lumpy sea’s and brought the fleet home after only one race. Craig ended the event a worthy winner, successfully defending the title from 2009.
Many thanks to the team at TSVS for a great weekend & for making us all so welcome.

Best junior was Martin Werdermann (SV Untersee Kyritz) and best veteran (55+) Rainer Pospich (YC Berlin Gr�nau).

The Einlaufbier (ramp beer) was donated by Thorsten Schmidt.
