French Skipper Simon Bertheau won the
opening event of the European Tour ahead of World # 20 Dejan Presen from
Slovenia and the Russian Vladimir Liparvski. The multiple Olympian
Christian Binder from Austria and the Croatian Pavle Kostov were tied on
the forth place. The Tour event in Sibenik, perfectly organized by the Wave Sailing
Centre, challenged the ten teams with various conditions. Was it the
famous bura wind with gusts up to 30 knots on the first day, so came
light wind tactics into play on day number two. But on the final day,
the bay of Sibenik provided a outstanding match racing venue with
sunshine and sea breeze the whole day.
Simon Bertheau stunned the other skippers with outstanding performance over the three days. The young French skipper and his crew showed great teamwork and good sailing performance. With just one race lost to the second placed Dejan Presen, it was a well-earned victory. The French took also the lead of the European Match Racing Tour which will continue in one month's time at Tivat in Montenegro.
"We are so happy to have won and it is great to be the leaders of the European Match Racing tour" exclaimed a super-happy Bertheau after the prize giving.
