RC 44 Austria

A good day today for Katusha and not quite as good for Artemis. Three fleet races were held today on Lake Traunsee in light and very shifty conditions. Oracle Racing had the best day followed by Katusha and then the new Russian team of Nika. It is a place where you are never out of […]

RC44-Austria

Today was match racing on Lake Traunsee. Five flights were held in 7-10 knots of wind. We had an ok day on Katusha with a score of two wins, two losses that felt very frustrating as we were winning the two we lost. Our first race against Puerto Callero we led the entire way. In […]
