A good day for Katusha. With a score of 4 in the DHL Coastal Race (and a 6, 4) in the two windward leeward races, we have moved up to 4th in the fleet racing. At this point, that has us in the lead for the overall win in the Bank Sarasin Cup. Artemis had […]

Today was the first day of the fleet racing series. We had good winds all day, between eight and 12 knots. The wind was from the south and there were some pretty big shifts, and holes as well. Onboard Katusha, we had a moderate day. We are lying 6th after four races, but just three […]

Today was the official practice race. We went out early and did some practice match racing with Artemis. The practice race was a fleet race and we finished a credible third. We had the lead off the start and 3/4’s of the way up the first beat, then made some mistakes. So the good news […]
We had a very good day of practice today on Katusha, our new Russian RC44. A lot of work has gone into getting the brand new boat ready for our first event here in Slovenia. Brad and JR have been here a month putting the keel on, getting the bottom perfect, assembling the rig and […]
