Talamone, Italy - A full round of congratulations are in order for Richard Goransson's Inga From Sweden
along with tactician Vasco Vascotto and crew Giovanni Cassinari,
Federico Michetti, Cesare Bozzetti, Marco Carpinello, Gosse de Boer and
Alex Sinclair as they are the 2016 Sailing Series® Melges 32 Talamone Champions!
Relatively
new to the fleet and obviously settling into Melges 32 competitive
Class culture well, is second place overall Matteo Balestrero aboard Giogi with tactician Andrea Casale, and in third is Norway's Lasse Petterson sailing Pippa with Matteo Ivaldi calling tactics.
Two
additional races were held on the final day of competition with the
daily race wins going to Goransson, and Vincenzo Onorato's Mascalzone Latino.
With
a moderate 10-12 knots for the start of Race Six, Goransson had the
race wrapped up with a virtual wire-to-wire win. Fritz Homann's Wilma held off Petterson to grab second.
The same dominating performance went for Onorato in Race Eight, with a great Russian chase between Pavel Kutznetsov on Tavatuy and Valentin Zavadnikov's Team SynergyGT
for the runner up position. Although Kutznetsov was strong, his effort
wasn't enough to hold off Zavadnikov's seasoned team which included Ed
Baird on tactics. Zavadnikov eventually got the upperhand to win second
over Kutznetsov finishing in third.
A VERY SPECIAL THANKS
A big thank you goes to Circolo Nautico Talamone, BPSE and all the Melges 32 teams for making this event a great success.
