Olympic Classes - Test Event - Aarhus DEN - Start today, the Swiss

The next World Sailing Olympic Classes World Championship will be organised in Aarhus DEN in 2018, the event to allot most of the 2020 Olympic nations' berths. Today begins the test event for the organisers, but also for teams wanting to get familiar with the venue. Over 250 boats will participate in the 10 events. Switzerland is represented by Kilian Wagen/Grégoire Siegwart SUI and Linda Fahrni/Maja Siegenthaler SUI in the 470s and Mateo Sanz-Lanz SUI in the RS:X male windsurfers. New in an Olympic campaign for the Swiss Team is Eliott Merceron in the Lasers Standard, a Swiss and French passport holder now starting under Swiss flag. Chris Rast SUI, with Trevor Burd USA as crew, plans a 49er Olympic campaign in the US Sailing Team.
