Mini 650 - Simon Koster SUI ready for the 2017 season

In December, Simon Koster SUI decided to continue racing with his futuristic round-bow Mini and to aim for a successful participation in the Mini-Transat. In 2015, he finished on rank 8 without really exploiting the full potential of his boat. During the past weeks, his Mini was enhanced with some new features, but he had to refrain from installing the now permitted foiling daggerboards for cost-reasons.
Final tune-ups and trainings are now on the program before his first race test at the Lorient-Bretagne-Sud Regatta, a 150 miles' race for two-person teams, in early April.
