Yardstick - Die Eiserne - Constance GER

With cold temperatures and a 20kn plus wind, the 'Eiserne' (iron-like, or sometimes ice-like) Regatta lived up to its name. Only two third of the 200 teams on the entry list finished the race.
On the long course, the catamarans dominated. Oliver Kaderli SUI with his Nacra17 took the line honours after 24min and his fast time was good enough for the win in calculated yardstick time. On rank 2 followed Gerd Schmitzer GER on a F18-Cat. 63 of the 96 registered boats teminated the race.
On the short course, Jörn Thöne GER with his Seggerling finished first in real and calculated time. Peter Nietsch GER on a Laser Radial and Jochen Paust GER on a Sprinter 32 completed the podium. 97 of the 130 registered boats reached the finish line.
