The Bayerisch sensation at Leipzig

GER 339 helmed by Donald Lippertt sailing with Eric Pfaff and Sven Rikwald kept their crown in the tiny lake always finding the right spot to take the shift and the wind gust, the managed to win both races of the day before the wind died.

The Bayerische team GER 2 helmed by Christian Mack sailing with local help Christoph Zeidler and the night entertainer and beer specialist Leopold Berner just closed the event in fantastic performance taking two second places at both races it was not enough but they got closer to the local team GER 282 helmed by Frank Reinboth sailing with Stephan Schonfelder and Alex Hahn who managed to have two thirds enough to keep followers behind.

Teams were pleased with a great sailing weekend, shined by the sun and on Saturday enough wind to complicate the race committee, and on Sunday the light wind complicated the thinkers in each boat.

The Cospudener Yacht Club proved to be a reliable resource for the German Soling fleet, despite their young age, sailors with extreme qualities in the water and onshore mastering an event organization with the help of their sponsors - Cafe Pressoway (https://pressoway.de/ ) - Long Horn Gin ( https://wilhelm-horn.com/long-horn/ )
