Danish Nats 2015 for Guido Schulte

All images by Emil Landry,  report sent by Lars Schroeder:

"The Danes were back at the very nice sailing club in Kaløvig, where the Worlds were raced in 2011.

Weather gods looked in our direction for a first day with perfect racing in 6-8 m/s, , flat water and sunny skies. Good mix of flying and non flying boat in front.

Second day, more sunshine, enjoyable atmosphere at the harbour, food and good coffee. But no wind....so weather gods didn´t care for the sailors that day !
